About this Artist
Cellist Jason Lippmann joined the Los Angeles Philharmonic during the 2004/05 season, after five years as a member of the New Jersey Symphony Orchestra. Lippmann has also performed with the Baltimore Symphony, the Cincinnati Symphony and Cincinnati Opera, the New World Symphony, the American Ballet Theatre Orchestra, and the Orpheus Chamber Orchestra. Along with his orchestral playing, Lippmann has been active as a chamber and solo musician, most recently on the LA Phil’s Chamber Music and Green Umbrella series.
A native of Cincinnati, OH, Lippmann began his music studies on the violin at the age of 3. He switched to the cello a year later and studied with Norman Johns, Assistant Principal Cello at the Cincinnati Symphony. Lippmann received his Bachelor of Music degree from the Manhattan School of Music, where he studied with Peter Wiley, Alan Stepansky, Julia Lichten, and David Geber (whose father, Ed Geber, was a member of the Los Angeles Philharmonic cello section).
Lippmann has performed at the Tanglewood Festival, the Aspen Music Festival, the Bard Festival, and the Bellingham Music Festival.
