Mark Wood is a world-renowned performer who rose to fame as string master and original founding member of the internationally acclaimed Trans-Siberian Orchestra, selling over 10 million records with them. As a Juilliard trained recording artist, performer, producer, inventor, Emmy award-winning composer and music education advocate, Mark Wood has spent over four decades electrifying the orchestra industry – literally.
