She is originally from Austin, Texas.<\/p>\n<p>Last year she played with the Neponset Valley Philharmonic, the Orchestra of Indian Hill, Sound Icon, Simon Sinfonietta, and the Callithumpian Consort. I definitely notice the emphasis on new music.<\/p>\n<p>In the Addington\/Arnold Duo, they play music on the cutting edge and newer, with pieces by Elliott Carter, Kaija Saariaho, Villo-Lobos and plenty of premieres and repeat performances of New England composers. Composers, like me, especially like those repeat performances. It means the players do like the music!<\/p>\n<p>Her web site is <a href=\"http:\/\/www.ashleyaddington.com\/\">http:\/\/www.ashleyaddington.com<\/a>.
