Overview

I am available to play as a soloist, with piano accompaniment or with an ensemble. I have been playing professionally for 40 years. Some of the events I have played for include musicals, Christmas shows, church services, weddings, social events, corperate events, community events, theme park events and memorial services. I also work with a number of other types of instrumentalists. I have also done studio playing and live/pre-recorded television. I also have many styles of music that may be used in a wide variety of events. My favorite playing experience was playing for Walt Disney World Resorts for a number of years.

What to expect

My music enhances the mood of any event. The audience is always complimentary.

About

I am a clarinetist with my music degree from the University of Central Florida in Orlando. I am 5 credits away from receiving my MM degree in performance with clarinet as my major instrument. I will work with the event planner in order to come up with the music that is suitable for their event. They may expect a professional and quality performance at rates that are competitive. I also have the names and references for other musicians that the planner may be interested in hiring or using with my performance, for example, a piano accompanist. I may also provide references when needed.

Additional booking notes

I primarily play without technical enhancements but from time to time a mic is needed or a light on my stand.

Set list

I have a huge selection of Christmas music, religious music, musicals, Disney tunes, wedding music, romance, classical tunes which are too numerous to list. If I don't have it, I can usually get it. I also do some arranging of music and have written original music.

Influences and inspiration

Pop Music, Romance, Wedding, Christmas, Contemporary Christian, Traditional Hymns, Musicals, classical music, worship music, and folk.

Setup requirements

Chair (not always) and Mic (not always),

I bring my own stand and stand light
