Competition Winner

Stephen Salters's passionate and impeccably articulated performances of a wide range of repertoire have won him acclaim throughout Europe, the UK, Asia, and the United States. He works regularly with leading conductors including Christoph Eschenbach, Seiji Ozawa, Robert Spano, Nicholas McGegan, Keith Lockhart, Ivor Bolton, Will Crutchfield, Leonard Slatkin, Hugh Wolff, Bobby McFerrin, Jane Glover, Jeff Tyzik, and Martin Haselboeck.
