You can view my latest jazz live performances and projects in HD video format on my facebook or youtube pages for free. There are still some videos on my server here, but I'll be taking those slowly down to preserve more space for my other files.
Below are videos from a quartet project with John Ellis, Jason Marsalis, and Steve Haines recorded in 2010, still available on my server. For newer 2011 stuff with Bobby Watson, Joseph Dickey, and Bill Campbell visit my facebook page instead:

Most of my latest sets can be found on my Flick page here. There are still some older sets on this website, however I'm getting more into wedding photography lately, so Flickr.com will be my main storage and advertisement tool from now on. Check out my latest wedding dress and engagement collections here or here.
Recording Arts News (updated 06-22-2011)
This past Spring I mastered a new CD by polish trombonist Grzegorz Nagorski which should be released soon. This was a fun project. I often master using modified 1/2" Studer Master Deck (with butterfly heads) and modern and great sounding ATR Master reel tapes.
Last winter I completed my students' jazz band project "St. Louis Blues" recorded by the WCU Jazz Ensemble featuring Kat Williams on vocals. The CD was released in December 2010 and is available via our music office at music.wcu.edu. Just contact Sheila Frizzell via email or phone to order. You can preview its tracks here.
In Spring of 2010 I mastered a CD "Blackout" by polish trumpeter Piotr Wojtasik with Judy Bady on vocals.
GENERAL INFO
MUSIC plays very important role in my life. For starters it is a lot of fun for me to play and compose it, but music also gives me a chance to experience the feelings of joy, excitement, satisfaction, inspiration, as well as feelings of sorrow, sadness, drama, or hopelessness. I simply can't describe it, but when performing and listening to music I always feel something unique, something which helps me believe that I'm alive and for that I'm very thankful to our Creator. By browsing through this area you can learn more about my music background, my original approach to performing and composing, you can read a few articles and interviews as well as enjoy many free MP3 audio excerpts in the Soundbites section. If you want to support my art, you can purchase my CDs or MP3s here, or my sheet music here via secure Paypal transaction.
PHOTOGRAPHY became a true passion for me some fifteen years ago. I was never into shooting movies, but I was always attracted to photography. I started by purchasing a Pentax K-1000 35mm film camera with a few standard prime lenses. Digital technology was at its early stages then. However, with the introduction of Nikon D series digital cameras things have drastically changed for me. I'm happy that I can now share my view of the world as seen through the lens of my camera. And if you want some nice prints, please check here to see what I have to offer.
