About me
As a native Connecticut emerging composer, I have been performing and creating music for over 35 years and teaching for most of that time. My interests and styles encompass an extremely wide range of genres and instrumentations. My works have been heard in New England and New York City concert halls and performed by extraordinary musicians in ensembles ranging from string quartets and piano trios to percussion ensembles. I am also a multi-instrumentalist and innovative electroacoustic composer either performing my own works on stage or mixing for high-density multi-speaker array 3D spaces.My roots and foundations, however, feature original songs influenced by growing up in the 60s and 70s favoring progressive rock bands and downtown NYC jazz legends. Then, European scenes manifesting the first electronics and synthesizers as treated by countless expressive bands influenced me along with a deep love of metal, psychedelic, and alternative sounds during the 90s here in the United States. All of the albums from the best bands ground me and always bring me home from cerebral departures into more eclectic and modern forms of composition. As a result, my work in both worlds benefits from all forms of what I do.
I am also a researcher and performer of traditional folk music on instruments like fifes, pennywhistles, and world percussion which always manages to slip into the work I create which I believe deeply personalizes a unique sonic experience not easily matched by others. Anyone looking for a new sound will be happy to meet my acquaintance.
