Eric Hopkins plays the dual role of percussionist and associate principal timpanist in the symphony. His passion lies in both roles equally. For Eric, percussion is about negotiating the wide array of acoustic possibility, overcoming and embracing the challenges of each unique instrument. On timpani, the large copper kettle drums, Eric strives to maximize the sound color palette to vivify the emotional content of the music.https://utahsymphony.org/bio/eric-hopkins/

Ep. 83: Eric Hopkins

Eric Hopkins is not just an artist, he is a kind gentleman that looks at the world through a different lens. He takes his experiences of life, death, happiness, beauty, and much more and showcases it through his work. His work is portrayed in many forms of art from watercolors to oils to photography. He enjoys the use of bright, vibrant colors and typically you will see in many of his watercolor work, small forms of trees that give his landscape texture and dimension. It is a minor detail that many see as Eric's signature and when one sees it they know exactly who created it.Eric along with his two brothers was born on North Haven Island and he and his brother David still reside there today. Eric's three children grew up on the island as well. One of his sons passed away in a horrific car accident and his other son and daughter still reside on the island raising their beautiful families. You will find Eric putting together beautiful pieces on his 40-acre property. He has three shacks that all include studios, one for his watercolors, the second for his drawings and sketches, and the third for his woodworking that best complements his watercolor pieces. Eric also has a gallery located in Rockland that showcases many pieces of his work.Eric enjoys traveling the world and capturing the beauty of nature in those areas to display through his artwork. He has a glass studio in Washington state where he visits once a year but he always winds up back in his home state.To learn more about Eric Hopkins and to see his one-of-a-kind artwork, please visit his website.

Sean is a fingerstyle jazz guitarist who combines many diverse musical influences with unconventional techniques to create a broad palette of textures within his compositions and arrangements for solo guitar.
