Artist description Beautiful instrumental arrangements of traditional music... Guitars, pianos, flutes, strings...

Music Style Classical piano and electronic instrumental including New Age, and Christmas.

Musical Influences Wendy Carlos, Ray Lynch, Moody Blues, Kingston Trio, Vangelis, J.S. Bach, and Georgene Brown (my first piano teacher) have all influenced my music. I love music in all of the genres, and I try not to limit myself to one.

Similar Artists Christmas, Daniel Cox, Ernesto Cortazar, Bassic. Definitely not the other Stipe.

Artist History I've been composing music since 1977, and seriously recording since 1989. My primary focus until now has been in composing music for my own pleasure. I've also done a few songs for industrial video soundtracks.

Press Reviews Mood-manipulating new age tracks composed of piano melodies and heavy synths. Light and dainty fare goes well with coffee on a Sunday morning. - Melissa P. (Listen.com)
