Music inspires and lifts the soul. Scholars and Philosophers throughout
the world all agree that only music can do what music does.
It is my first language. While composing, like ideas find their way through my mind’s ear and settle into a coherent audible reality called musical composition.
You’ll hear snippets of classical, country, latin, pop, and sometimes shades of east indian music. My writing and playing has a improvised feel to it as I use a modern classical approach in a very relaxed way. You’ll know my sound once you’ve heard it. Some refer to me as "The Improv-essor.”
Music making is the most rewarding, challenging and awe inspiring gifts of all https://www.tradebit.comough thick and thin it remains my best friend
