Klein, who made his orchestral solo debut in Brazil at the age of ten, has performed with the Philadelphia Orchestra and l'Orchestre de la Suisse Romande. First prize winner, International Competition for Music Performers in Geneva, Switzerland; winner of competitions and awards in New York, Tokyo, and Prague.

Founder and former director, Chamber Music Society of Seattle.
