The Los Angeles Philharmonic recently featured Tracy as soloist on a work John Adams composed specifically for him. PBS "A Prairie Home Companion" and "Tiny Desk Concerts" featured him for his matchless creativity as both a performer and composer. No less than the BBC critiques Tracy as "The world's greatest exponent of the electric violin". In this program he performs as the soloist in lovely orchestral works of his own composition, and he plays also with Classical Fusion artists, Bach to the Future.

Ptah William is that rare artist having achieved greatness in both the Classical and Jazz genre. His work is revered far beyond St. Louis, which is his home and where he has reached iconic stature. In this program Ptah will perform a Haydn concerto in which he is given a cadenza to create his own unique interpretation, spotlighting a true fusion of his talents. ​​
