About me:
I am a professional conductor primarily, but have been composing all my life and have a nice array of performances behind me, even if composing was never my 'prime directive'.Some examples of my work can be heard at soundcloud.com/maestronordin and I sometimes say quirky things on twitter.com/maestronordin
You can learn more about me work as a conductor on my website www.jespernordin.dk and I even keep a blog alive once in a while, at jespernordin.blogspot.com!
So much for not leaving an e-trail!
