Mr. Almond has become an iconic figure in Milwaukee's classical music scene as the concertmaster of the Milwaukee Symphony Orchestra, his home for 21 years. Beyond his local commitments, like directing his Frankly Music chamber series, Almond has served as concertmaster and guest concertmaster for other world-class orchestras in both hemispheres, and conducted symphonies across the country and in Europe. He won the Nicolo Paganini and the Tchaikovsky violin competitions beginning in his teens and earned two degrees from the Juilliard School, studying with highly respected teachers like Dorothy Delay and Joseph Silverstein.

Mr. Armstrong, too, is a veteran of the world's most prestigious concert stages. His vast repertoire earns him frequent invitations to perform as a concerto soloist, recital soloist, and chamber ensemble member. Early in his college years at New York's Columbia University, he received recognition when he won the Jury Discretionary Award at the Van Cliburn Competition and three years later was named a Gilmore Young Artist. Having been raised in the East Coast where he still resides, Mr. Armstrong has become a favorite guest artist at home and abroad, and especially here in the Midwest.
