My Interests

Music:

Member Since: 11/3/2006
Influences: This music is composed and performed by me but many influences have shaped my style. European classical music has been a lifelong inspiration. This tradition has given me melody, harmony, counterpoint and form. From old church chant, I learned modes and a free flow of rhythm. Indian classical music, Middle Eastern classical music, blues and jazz have taught me improvisation. Gamelan music, electronic music and the sounds of nature have suggested ways of creating evocative sounds and rhythms. Anyway, I hope that you find something personally worthwhile in my music and, if you do, I'd love to get a message or comment from you.
