With his effort, and the support of his mother, his family and his community, he became a principal member in the double bass segment of the Berlin Philharmonic Orchestra.
Ar viņa paša pūlēm, viņa mātes, ģimenes un kopienas atbalstu, viņš kļuva par Berlīnes filharmonijas orķestra kontrabasu nodaļas pastāvīgo mūziķi.
