I myself learned to play the trumpet from the age of four. The recorder was added later as a second instrument. I grew up in Jerusalem, where I was born in 1979. When I was eleven years old, I played in a youth orchestra for the first time. Until 2000 I gave concerts in Europe and the USA with various orchestras, including the “Young Israel Philharmonic Orchestra”, and I won several grants.

After graduating from high school, I did the military service in the military orchestra, compulsory in Israel, from 1997 to 2000. At Israel Defense Force College, I acquired the instructor qualification for youth orchestras.

From 2002 to 2004 I worked in Israel as a freelance trumpeter and studio musician for television, before I began studying classical trumpet in 2005 at the “Conservatorium van Amsterdam” with Professor Theo Wolters. At the same time, I participated in the “Amsterdam Symphony Orchestra”. I successfully completed my studies in 2007 with a diploma. In the same year I moved to Munich and became a permanent member of the Jakobsplatz orchestra and for some projects I played in the Junge Münchner Philharmonie.

I have been head of the United Klezmer Ensemble since 2009. We are a group of professional musicians and our concern is to revive the tradition of the Klezmer. As a music teacher, I quickly gained a foothold in Munich. In 2008 I took over the musical direction of a Klezmer children’s band and worked as a music teacher in a youth culture center. Between 2011 and 2013 I worked as a trumpet and recorder teacher in various music schools in Munich. I have been living and working in the Rhein-Main area since 2013.

Since 2019 I live in Denmark and i am a Brass teacher im Flensburg and Schleswig music schools. I am the musical director of the Pa’s Brass band, Schafflund, Germany, and I am the music conductor of the Schleswig youth orchestra. As well I am a member of severas Brass bands in Denmark.
