Robson's a musical shapeshifter, too his hands make instruments sing whether playing Stravinsky suites that soar to the rafters of Robinson Center Performance Hall or jamming on fiddle at the White Water Tavern.Īnd as his friends are eager to tell you, in his off hours Robson's likely to be found with his hands deep in the rich soil of the garden he has cultivated downtown, or preparing meals for them using organic food he has nurtured from seed. When he plays with the orchestra or its chamber groups, they are the hands of a master violinist whose fingers dance in their intricate ballet of bow and strings. Those hands are perhaps best known for conducting the Arkansas Symphony Orchestra, the organization he serves as artistic director. He may often wear a tuxedo in public, but make no mistake: Geoff Robson works with his hands.
