Discussion & Desserts featuring Jeremy Eig

Have you ever wondered what it's like to be a professional musician, or what it takes to make it as a world class player? What does a musician do every day? What are the most exciting and not so exciting parts of playing with a military ensemble v. an orchestra? Chevy Chase is so lucky to be able to find out from Town resident and professional clarinetist, Jeremy Eig. Jeremy’s musical interests run the gamut from solo performing to chamber music, teaching, commissioning new music and arranging/editing works for clarinet ensemble. He co-directs the Neighborhood Concert Series, teaches students at Chevy Chase Music Lessons, and performs with and serves as personnel manager and orchestra librarian with the New Orchestra of Washington. He has served in the U.S. Navy Band since 2012 and holds the rank of Musician 1st Class. RSVP to 301-654-7144 or townoffice@townofchevychase.org.
