About Vendor 

Learn more about this vendor for your event.

I have always loved music, from age 3 years old. I began classical piano study when I was eight years old, in 1954. I studied for four years, then moved over to guitar and singing and self taught just about entirely on those. I returned to classical piano study when I was fifteen years old, and within that year I tried playing Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's Alla Turca from Sonata in A by Mozart. The Alla Turca is the last of ten movements including six variations, Menuetto, Trio and the Alla Turca. The introduction in the very beginning is Andante Grazioso. After graduation from high school, I pursued liberal arts, English as a sophomore at Ohio University, but then I returned to music study at Berklee College Of Music, Boston, MA. I have also studied at Rhodes Island College, Longy School by it's affiliation with Emerson College where I was enrolled. Recently, since 2008, I have studied Classical Piano with Delores Stevens, a Nationally renouned teacher and recipient of Living Legacy Award, and Ms. Stevens has concertized in seven or more foreign countries and recorded on sixteen different record labels. I studied with Delores Stevens three times a year for seven years, including 2015. In 2015 I commenced Classical piano studies of Mozart with Lisa Rohn, a very experienced teacher as such of classical piano. Lisa Rohn graduated before teaching piano, from New England Conservatory, Boston, MA. I have/am learning a great deal from these teachers, and I am better at piano because of it. From 1980-1983 I served my country in the Regular Army Band Program and I took an Honorable Discharge. From January, 1981-March, 1983 I was lead guitarist in the 113th Army Band, Fort Knox, KY. There I also played cymbals, glockenspiel and softball. The nearby towns of Elizabethtown and Radcliffe, KY, were with nice people, I'm grateful. In 1974 I brought my experiences singing/guitar playing in the greater Boston area including Framingham and Salem, MA State Teachers' Colleges, and also played Coffeehouse Venues in Boston, MA and Cambridge, MA. I nearly cut a record of a song I wrote lyrics and music for. This was from 1968-1970. But again, in 1974 I made it into Steven Spielberg's Jaws: I was extra-cast, Bonfire Guitarist in; the opening Bonfire scene just before Chrissy is devoured by the Great While shark, named Bruce. I am also in the Music Department of The Shark Is Still Working: The Impact and Legacy Of Jaws produced by J. Michael Roddy. I also mention my cinematographer Erik Hollender shooting me playing for The Shark Is Still Working. I am a guest at the Wake in the movie: Priest ( 1994 ) and my movie credits are at That's Internet Movie Database. I am playing Louisa Gould Gallery, Vineyard Haven, MA, since 2007, for Openings during the Gallery's Summer Season: many fine Artists are on exhibit there year 'round. Thank you!
