Biography
Gordon is the son of pianist Anita Gordon and composer Louis Gordon, Gordon began playing the cello at the age of eight. His first teacher was Mary GIli in Millburn, NJ, and in high school he studied with Jerome Carrington in the pre-college division of the Juilliard School. As an undergraduate and graduate student he studied with Harvey Shapiro at the Juilliard School in New York followed by studies with Joel Krosnick. His principal chamber music teachers were Samuel Sanders, Paul Zukofsky, and the Juilliard String Quartet. He cites George Neikrug as a particularly influential teacher in applying the physical principles of Demetrios Dounis to cello playing.
During his freelance years in New York City, Gordon received critical acclaim for his work with various new music ensembles, made a series of recordings for The Group for Contemporary Music, and became a resident cellist for the annual Composers Conference and Chamber Music Center at Wellesley College where he has been every summer since 1989. In 2002, Gordon was appointed cellist of the Naumburg Award winning Lydian String Quartet, joined the music faculty of Brandeis University in Waltham, MA, and quickly became an active participant in the Boston and New England chamber music scene. In 2005 he began performing in a duo with pianist Randall Hodgkinson which has been described as "insightful and impassioned" by The New Yorker; their New World recording, "Leo Ornstein: Complete Works For Cello and Piano," was named one of the top 10 classical recordings of 2007 by the All Music Guide. In 2012 he was appointed an Artist Member of the Worcester Chamber Music Society. He has been a recent guest of the Apple Hill Center For Chamber Music, Boston Baroque, Boston Chamber Music Society, Boston Jewish Music Festival with pianist Donald Berman, Chameleon Arts Ensemble, Emmanuel Music, North Country Chamber Players, Portland Chamber Music Festival, Rockport Chamber Music Festival, Smith College Players, Williams College Players, and the Apple Hill, Da Ponte, and Ying quartets.
