Upcoming Events

Because conducting, teaching, performance, administrative, and master class obligations as Director of Choral Studies and Chair of the Department of Music at Stanford University keeps his schedule packed, Steve must respectfully decline most performing invitations. However, he is able to squeeze in a few gigs each year.
