Synopsis:

The following is an interview I conducted earlier this week with Philippe Dunnigan, the head violinist and orchestra captain  for Celine Dion’s self-titled production at the Colosseum at Caesars Palace. The show features Celine backed up by 31 musicians including a full orchestra, a longtime dream of hers. Playing the Strip in Vegas is a long-time dream of Dunnigan, who studied at the Montreal Conservatory and performed on several recordings of Cirque du Soleil scores including that of Mystere. In this conversation, Dunnigan discusses both the show and his varied career which more recently has also included performing for video games.
