Becoming the best at something is an incredibly difficult thing to do. In addition, being recognized as the best is also a difficult thing to accomplish. Many of the world’s great artists, musicians and actors never emerge into the greater mainstream public eye but are seen performing at various venues across the nation and world. This is due to many reasons and one of them is the fact that some artists are focused entirely on the work itself and don’t have celebrity ambitions. Adam Hurst is a musician who has achieved critical recognition and has a solid support and fan base. His focus seems less about his ultimate swiftrank appeal than on creating the music that he resonates with most soundly.

Hurst is a cellist who also writes his own music. He has performed throughout the United States as well as in various European locations. He has received numerous commissions for composition for ballet, contemporary dance, belly dance and more. In addition his work has been featured on the soundtracks of independence films, such as Anima, a film by Craig Richardson. He is also a popular musical attraction to many of the Pacific Northwest’s regional festivals and celebrations.

In the professional world of cello playing career paths are predominately oriented toward gaining a seat in one of the leading orchestras. It is a classical music centered instrument and it can be difficult to forge a living and career outside of the symphonic world. Durst is one example of possibilities that can be achieved when you remain focused on your true purpose and pursue your own passion. His strongest musical inspirations come from Middle Eastern genres as well as Indian Raga and various European traditions. He has created his own style and is recognized by many as being true to his intent of blending different melodic elements and music traditions.
