About Me


. -- -- CDBABY LINK for GINGER HAYDON: Garden of Dreams --Welcome to my music profile page. Music has always been an important part of my life, and the piano has been my instrument of choice. I began taking piano lessons at age 7. I have been greatly influenced by church music. The beautiful hymns and praise songs helped shape my style. I also have a deep appreciation for the marvelous standards of the 30's, 40's, and 50's...songs such as "Stardust," "As Time Goes By," "Deep Purple," and countless others of this particular genre.In 1996, I graduated from Central Missouri State University in Warrensburg with a Bachelor of Music Education degree. I have been a piano teacher for the past 18 years, but I also have a heart for music composition. I am thrilled to have this opportunity to introduce my first CD entitled "Garden Of Dreams" which consists of 18 of my original ompositions.For purchase information regarding my Garden Of Dreams CD please go to gingerhaydon.net.Also, please visit my personal profile page which can be reached atwww.myspace.com/gigi1900
