Synopsis:
Right Back Where I Started is a musical odyssey of the heart, mind, and spirit, a journey from the innocent Pacific Northwest of the 1960s to China, Slovenia, Italy, Romania, the Middle East, and countless locations in America, crossing paths with the likes of Renee Fleming, Bill Clinton, James Earl Jones, Maya Angelou, and William Shatner.
In Maestro Itkin’s world, thrilling performances, memorable collaborations, and exotic travel occur in tandem with professional stumbles, difficult choices, and heartbreak, viewed through riveting anecdotes and glimpses into his personal and professional philosophy. But through it all, we never doubt that the music made, the friends acquired, and the lessons learned made it all worthwhile.
