S2E03 - Jonathan Yeoh

Jonathan Yeoh has played bass in the Calgary Philharmonic Orchestra since 2020, and this year begins working as Assistant Principal Double Bass. We discuss starting work during the pandemic, working towards a titled chair in the section he had already been a member of, and powerlifting.

The music in this episode was the Courante from Bach’s 5th Cello Suite, and Cesar Franck’s Violin Sonata, here performed on bass by Jonathan Yeoh and pianist Akiko Tominaga.
