He has made several CDs and has given many concerts. In 1997 he was invited to perform a concert in the Folger Shakespeare Library in Washington DC to honour President William Clinton's second-term inauguration.[1]
Vayne has in the past worked with DJ and producer Armin van Buuren. Together they made the album Classical Trancelations that is a mixture of trance and classical music.
Jan Vayne regularly gives concerts in collaboration with symphony orchestras, ensembles, musicians, vocalists, harmony orchestras and choirs. In more recent times, Vayne performs together with organist/composer Martin Mans[2] and singer Petra Berger.[3]
Vayne was married[4] with Joyce Wegman and they have a daughter, Olivia[5] born in 2006.
