At the age of 19, he formed The Pendleton Festival Symphony, which grew into a professional summer orchestra which flourished in Indiana during the late 1970s and early 1980's, and brought a diverse slate of international guests artists to perform with it in Central Indiana, including Metropolitan Opera singers Roberta Peters and Rosalind Elias, violinist Eugene Fodor, principal dancers and ensembles from The New York City Ballet, The American Ballet Theatre, and The Joffrey Ballet, and major choral groups including The Harvard Glee Club. The Pendleton Festival Symphony was supported during that period from major grants and funding from The Indiana Arts Commission, The National Endowment for the Arts, and Lilly Endowment.
