Glenn Garlick, founding president of the Kindler Cello Society, is a cellist in the NSO who has lived and played in the Washington area for the last 40 years.

 

 

“The magnetic young German cellist Daniel Müller-Schott administered a dose of adrenaline ... a fearless player
with technique to burn ... But even more impressive were his gorgeous, plush tone and his meticulous attention to
expression.”
                                                  —The New York Times

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

 

Daniel Müller-Schott will be the soloist

with the National Symphony Orchestra
