About Daniel
Daniel Darmesin Flanagan currently serves as Concertmaster of the Sacramento Philharmonic and Opera, Concertmaster of West Edge Opera, Instructor of Violin at University of California at Berkeley, and Visiting Professor at Conservatorio Licinio Refice in Frosinone, Italy. Described as “one of the country’s most talented interpreters of contemporary music” by International Journal of Music, an “excellent violinist” and “true Renaissance man” by New York Concert Reviews, he has been praised for his “exquisite tones” and “forthright brio” by Sacramento Bee and his “excellent solos” by San Francisco Classical Voice.
Flanagan created The Bow and the Brush, an organization that commissions new music inspired by paintings and sculptures. With over 40 chamber and solo works by 25 composers, he has performed solo recitals across the United States and Europe, including Carnegie Hall, University of California, Boston University, University of Rome, Stern Pissarro Gallery, and The American Library in Paris. Several of these compositions can be heard on his album, The Bow and the Brush, which Fanfare Magazine called “Five Stars: A virtuoso exposition of violin playing, and a celebration of the intersection of art and music.” The Bow and the Brush Volume 2 will be released in fall, 2026.
Flanagan has performed as concertmaster with the Oakland Symphony, Santa Rosa Symphony, California Symphony, California Musical Theater, Berkeley Symphony, Festival Opera, Symphony San Jose, Modesto Symphony, and Opera Parallèle. He performs with the San Francisco Opera, San Francisco Ballet, and Eco Ensemble, and is a founding member of Trio Solano and Berkelium String Quartet.
As a composer, he has been commissioned by Sacramento Philharmonic and Opera, International Arts Educators Forum, Cecilia String Quartet, Trio Solano, Farallon Quintet, Hunter’s Point Shipyard Artists, Shipyard Gallery, Gold Coast Chamber Players, Le Petit Festival, Arc Gallery, and Villa Maybeck. His compositions are published by American Composers Alliance, and his transcriptions are published by Asenda Music and Fennica Gherman.
