When Amy Schwarz Moretti, the young, talented concertmaster of the Oregon Symphony, announced that she was leaving the ensemble after only two years, it was a stunner, even to her close colleagues in the orchestra. But Moretti explains that her departure, which will see her become director and resident professor at a new music school in Georgia, will allow her more time to develop her career as a soloist and chamber musician. “You never know what life throws at you. This is a curveball I didn’t want to pass up.”
