Artist description I try to compose several different styles of music. Having been trained on the piano, I do have a fondness for piano based music - both the more classical sounding and intrumental pop. In addition to that, I am a huge fan of John Williams and I love what he has done for contemporary orchestrations. That being said, I have begun to put together some larger pieces consisting of an electronic orchestra. Last, I also enjoy other instrumental types of music (eg. Enya) and I am beginning to compose in that style as well.

Artist History "Music is your own experience, your own thoughts, your own wisdom." - Charlie Parker .... How true this is! I originally started playing the piano back in 1983. At the time, I was being classically trained and I continued with that training for several years, building a solid musical foundation. In 1986, I started composing some rather simple music at the ripe ol' age of 12. The first song that I composed was a tribute to the men and women who lost their lives aboard the Space Shuttle Challenger. One of my goals as a child was to become actively involved with the space program so that disaster struck close to home and the music was a way of capturing that feeling. It was my first small step in an interesting journey of musical composition. Since then I have been composing music as a hobby. Recently, I have begun to commit a significant amount of time into composing new music and I hope to have an opportunity to do some scoring for businesses, TV, and small films. I am presently recording approximately 20 songs that I have composed over the past 13 years and I am constantly working on new stuff - including three pieces that were used at my wedding in April. I have found that music is a wonderful expression of what is going on around you... it is one of the ways that I communicate best. I am currently completing work on a second cd which should be available in August, 2000. "Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent." - Victor Hugo .... If you are interested in using any of my material in a production (TV, film, business, marketing, multimedia, etc.), or if you like what you here and would be interested in custom music being composed for you, please contact me using the links above. My personal web site is up and running even though it is still being completed. "Music washes away from the soul the dust of everyday life." - Red Auerbach ....
