A cum-laude first-prize winner at the Geneva International Music Competition (1972), Arad has performed worldwide in recitals and as a soloist with major orchestras and, for seven years, as a member of the celebrated Cleveland Quartet. His recordings with the quartet and as a soloist for labels such as Teldec, Telarc, RCA, and RIAX are widely acclaimed. His performance of Paganini\u2019s \u201cSonata per la Grand Viola e Orchestra\u201d is considered by many as a landmark in viola performance.<\/h5>
A \u201clate bloomer\u201d composer, Arad\u2019s compositions include a solo sonata for viola, two string quartets, a viola concerto (which he premiered in Bloomington, Brussels, and Stockholm), and more.

Merwin) for tenor, clarinet, viola, cello, and bass was written for the International Musicians Seminar\u2019s concert tour with singer Mark Padmore in England.<\/h5>
\u201cEpitaph\u201d for cello and string orchestra was written for cellist Gary Hoffman, who premiered it in Kronberg, Germany, with the Kremerata Baltica Orchestra. (Arad performed the viola version of this piece at the International Viola Congress in Rochester, New York). Arad performed and presented his \u201cTwelve Caprices for Viola\u201d on several concert tours, including in the U.S., Canada, Israel, and Europe. The caprices are published by Hofmeister Musikverlag, Leipzig.<\/h5>
Recent performances include the Primrose Memorial Concert at Brigham Young University and, as a part of his services as the Lorand Fenyves Distinguished Visitor, in Toronto. In November 2018, Arad was a featured artist at the International Viola Congress in Rotterdam, premiering his new concerto for viola and strings, \u201cCeci n\u2019est pas un Bach.\u201d<\/h5>
