ABOUT

Accomplished keyboardist/Organist/Pianist. Currently spending most of my time teaching private lessons, but really desire to get out and perform much more. I have a studio with practice space set up in Bella Vista.
Looking to possibly collaborate with at least 1 or 2 other musicians whose goals and musical tastes are similar.
My taste in music and repertoire is wide-ranging from the 1920's to the present; especially Jazz, Mellow/Soft Rock, Lounge Standards, Sounds of the 1960's and 1970's.....just to name a few. I am also working on some original instrumental compositions. I would like to find possibly a guitarist, saxophonist, flutist to form a small group or ensemble. I am very open minded to other instruments as well.
