Traditional Irish, Scottish, Scandinavian, Balkan, Turkish -- I don't know what but it tends to just happen somewhere inside my head -- a geeky pleasure in bow technique -- and 15-20 years of "classical" instruction -- did I forget campfire songs and sid vicious?

Listen and watch -- playing backup for Hans York in Fresno:
Myrajoy has been making odd noises on the cello since her parents first let it into her grip when she was six years old. This page is dedicated to all her cello stuff. So, the cool little solo bits that don't get much playing in the bands she plays with as well as the array of bands. All of which are good, of course, too - and whose concerts will be posted here. She is a founding member of the band Babes in the Woods and Elameno Quintet, and has performed with Bay Area artists including Kitka, The Black Brothers, Melanie O’Reilly, and David Serotkin. She has a B.M. in cello performance from the San Francisco Conservatory of Music where she studied with Jean-Michel Fonteneau. She has participated in masterclasses and festivals with cellists such as Stephen Geber, Richard Aaron, Nathaniel Rosen, and Peter Reijto, and studied privately with Debbie Tandoc, Peter Gelfand, Page Smith, and Andor Toth.
