Improvisations

 

I began playing music in 1959 and performed professionally throughout college and graduate school. These days, I play professionally and for charitable organizations on occasion. I usually play pop, Latin, jazz, and classical. I especially enjoy doing Brazilian, Tin Pan Alley, British Invasion, Country and American Folk. I performed most of these on a Roland KR107 digital piano, which generates all of the pianos, guitars, saxophones, brass, and other instruments.

 

Here are my more recent recordings (starting 2012). None of these employs multi-tracking. Just my two hands at the keyboard.

Down by the Riverside | Battle Hymn of the Republic 2 | Go Tell It on the Mountain

 

Here are some older recordings. On many of these songs, I recorded multiple tracks, with different instruments, and overlaid them electronically.
