Highway 89

Violinist Everett Petersen is a former Concertmaster of the Utah Philharmonic Orchestra at the University of Utah, and a former member of the Maywod String Quartet. He was the 1st violinist with the Orchestra at Temple Square for eight years, and the recipient of a scholarship to study violin with Ralph Matson, the Concertmaster of the Utah Symphony. Twice, he took first prize in the Utah MTNA Yamaha Strings Competition and second prize in the Utah State Fair Strings Competition. In addition to all of these musical accomplishments, Dr. Petersen is a practicing anesthesiologist in Salt Lake City! He is well-known among his colleagues for his outstanding medical practice, but also for a YouTube video of him performing on the violin in full doctor’s get-up for the “Doctor’s Day Talent Show” at the University of Florida where he recently concluded residency.  Pianist Larry Gee is Highway 89’s most frequent guest and we’re so happy to have him back on the show with us once more.
