MUSICIAN |
|
Piano was and still is my first love in music. Apart from learning by listening, I had a natural gift to play piano from about age 8 and started formal piano lessons at 14 with a preference for classical music.
Key career highlights include performances at The Center For The Arts in Natick, MA, The Cotuit Center for the Arts (Cotuit, MA), and house concerts on Cape Cod.
I’ve released two CDs that explore the musical tension between New Age (Dynosoar Above the Clouds) and Jazz fusion (Jazzalicious). Both releases have been placed on the Official Ballot for the Grammy Awards by The Recording Academy in 2015 and 2016, successively. My third CD, a guided meditation with Reverend Kathleen Hoffman of the Onset Spiritualist Church (Transformation) was released in 2017.
As an artist I offer sincerity, joy, gratitude, healing, soothing tones, a sacred space and time zone for you to enter and connect on your own terms with the great spirit which inspires me.
I live in Sandwich, MA and offer piano instruction for students of all ages and developmental abilities.
