In response to this versatility\, the San Francisco Examiner recently raved\, Mr. Fankuchen’s “flamboyant” performance “created the illusion that Eugene Ysaye had been born in Argentina\, possibly in a bed next to Jean Sibelius.” His ensembles include the San Francisco Chamber Orchestra\, the Magik Magik Orchestra\, Squid Ink\, the Musical Art Quintet\, the Chamber Music Society of San Francisco\, and he appears as a regular guest with the New Century Chamber Orchestra. Jory has appeared as soloist with the Palo Alto Chamber Orchestra\, the Berkeley Symphony\, at the Tanglewood Music Center\, and has the distinction of performing on Jascha Heifetz’s Guarneri del Gesu violin at the Legion of Honor. \nChamber music has always been the driving force behind Jory’s passion for music.

He is a founding member of Judgement Day\, who’s latest album was described by Strings Magazine as “a master class in the seemingly boundless possibilities of signal-processed\, electronic string music and a testament to the band’s creativity.” Judgement Day currently has 6 releases\, and has toured the United States\, Canada\, and Europe. Lewis plays with many other local groups of varying styles\, including folk\, jazz\, Latin\, Persian\, and rock. He has toured as a side musician with Tim Kasher\, Mates of State\, Pinback\, dredg\, and Margot and the Nuclear So-and-So’s.
