My Musical History



Writings:

   

INTRODUCTION

Performing music allows one to invite others into a very deep and spiritual realm; the essence of the music as expressed through the prism of the performer's soul creates what can be an intensely personal experience. Through my own performances as a pianist I have been grateful for those very rare moments of feeling connected to my listeners on a very deep level.

I have also felt the urge to connect and communicate through writing. The troubling political and social scenario in the United States calls for voices of dissent and reason. I have been inspired by many progressive thinkers and writers to add my own voice in this regard. I have also enjoyed reflecting on various life situations such as love and fatherhood, music, humor...whatever speaks to me in a particular way. These offerings represent for me a more direct mode of expression; the music of words and language.
