Between 1973 (the year I formed the chamber ensemble Camerata) and 1989 (the year I retired from the concert stage) I pioneered in Canada a crossover performance art that combined classical music with other art forms such as theater, dance, electronic media, and visual arts. The list below includes my original multi-disciplinary works, as well as a few pieces of other artists in whose works I participated as a performer or music director.
