John

It was a minute ago when I first started performing musically, as the lead boy soprano at a local church in Nebraska. Later, I became acquainted with the baritone horn and the electric bass, the guitar, and eventually the tuba. More recently, the piano and the flute have found their way into my musical life.
 
I’ve performed many different genres of music, and at many venues. I am most influenced by English and American progressive rock, American jazz of the 60’s and 70’s, Afropop and Romantic Symphonic music.
 
I believe music is innately accessible to everyone. It can sometimes seem as dauntingly complex as life; my key to teaching is to always try to bring it back to the experience, the purpose of music.
