[…] remains the concertmaster of SFS.)I heard Fleezanis in her associate concertmaster role in the 1980s, but I had virtually no awareness of who the individuals in the orchestra were or how important the upper seats of the violin section are. I heard her in chamber music once, a great performance of the Brahms piano quintet at Music@Menlo in 2005 in which she was the first violinist. The other players were Ian Swenson (2nd violin), Cynthia Phelps (viola), Ralph Kirschbaum (cello), and Wu Han (piano).Remembering Jorja Fleezanis (Minnesota Orchestra)David Allen, NY TimesJanos Gereben, SFCV
