Hello and thanks for visiting my website. I've just posted samples of my latest project, which includes all original music of mine written in last couple of years along with a brand new 30-minute composition in four parts entitled Jubilee Suite. This live performance from the Grey Eagle club of Asheville, NC features outstanding musicianship of Mr. John Riley (dr, Vanguard Jazz Orchestra) and my friend from North Texas years Mr. Mike McGuirk (b, Brooklyn based World-class musician). So make sure to check it out at the Recordings/MP3 link as this is one of the most exciting performances I have given in the past few years.

Below is a little bit about me to get you familiar with what I stand for. I also hope that you will enjoy listening to many MP3 excerpts this site has to offer, since they will enable you to follow my growth as a musician/composer in past eight years or so as well get you familiar with many different projects I have been involved in.

By no means I'm a prodigy and therefore everything I have learned has been earned by hard work and desire to create free, independent improvised music where one can express feelings, which are hard to describe by other means. Music is simply a part of my daily life, and for that I feel truly blessed and very fortunate.

Yes, it's true that being a musician -- a "true creative artist" -- can be rather difficult, but there are huge rewards. I enjoy performing for the public, and I love to feel the exchange of energy between the audience and myself. It's an extraordinary feeling, one which no money can buy.

If you enjoy listening to music and want to experience something more than just background muzak or the repetitive popular cliches continually replayed on nearly every radio and TV station, you might like this site.

And, because I specialize in mobile recording of live classical and jazz concerts as well as professional mastering of various musical styles where the vintage equipment meets the newest technology, you might also be interested in what type of professional digital-audio services I have to offer. Please, check out the Professional Services link for details on my mastering concept and a current gear list.

Please feel free to contact me with your comments or any questions you might have regarding either this website or my music.
