VIOLINSONG

Breaking
the mold of the classical violinist. I bring my background in rock,
jazz and even bluegrass to the stage...I love to play my instrument,
which IÕm well known for (Boston Pops, etc.), but ideas are important
& I need to SING them. In my concerts, I play my own original
music. It's important that if musicians have the language and ability
to express themselves that they do so, to empower everyone. So I sing,
play violin & piano with my tracks and/or band, depending on the
gig.
Styles: contemporary, funky-classical, avantgarde pop-rock with some rap, fiddle tunes,R&B, blues. ambient, fusion, ethnic, dramatic film & TV scoring Stylistic influences:
rock, indie, jazz, classical & Baroque,, ambient, fusion, ethnic and dramatic film & TV composers

Dream
I wrote this gentle
instrumental as the first in a series of songs about the sea. I call it
Sailor's Dream, but it started out being Sailor's Memory. I guess its
his
daydream. The sailor remembers his loves lost...far away, and memories
of
events that occurred on his ship on the open seas. He's standing on a
rocky
shoreline watching the waves crash up as he remembers...
Genre: Rock: retro-Rock,
Pop/Dream-pop, Moods: solo Male Artist
