Description
My music is a reflection of my life including the many events that I've experienced. I've lived and traveled from the ghettos of Chicago, the communist boarder of North Korea, the Philippine jungle, Japan, Singapore, to the wonderful North West of the United States. I've studied ethnic music influenced by my experiences living in an African American Culture to classical music living in a predominantly Caucasian culture and studied with some of the best piano professors known.
When I perform, I perform from the heart of who I am as God's creation. All of my compositions have meaning and most of them are based on a personal story that I've experienced. Some people call my music contemporary classical or new age; others say I sound like George Winston or Enya.
Most of these songs of mine are well received by listeners ranging from the very young to very old. The music also reflects a blend of cultures and lifestyles and is founded upon the knowledge that my music is devinely influenced.
If you are interested in having me perform at your event I will see to it that you and your guest experience the best of who I am as a musician. I'm quite flexible with small budgets and I'm willing to work with those who are in need of my services. I'm readily available during the summer months: June, July, and August.

Feedback
- Stephen Duster's appearance, demeanor and recital were very professional; his music was beautiful and set an elegant and romantic background for our Wedding Dinner at Lakewald Gardens. I would highly recommend this gentleman for any type of function or occasion as he is a quality performer. I want to thank him again for making my son’s wedding an occasion to remember.
