I've just begun a new collaboration with artist Bob Nugent to write a suite of music to accompany a series of paintings that are his reflections on the environment and its degradation. Specifically Minas Gerais, Brazil, and the impacts of strip mining there. After completion, his series, accompanied by my musical suite, will have it's debut showing in Brazil in the summer of 2021. This is one of many such projects being started throughout the world. For more information go to: (expired link). (EXTRACTION: Art on the Edge of the Abyss)
Thanks to all who have supported my music in the past. This is a departure for me as my inspiration will come from paintings rather than lyrics.
Wish me luck. I'll keep you posted as the process unfolds.

To all of you who've asked whether or not I was going to upload more songs, I do not intend to upgrade my N1M account in order to post more music. However, my two CD's, "All About Love" and "Collaborations are currently available for streaming on iTunes, Pandora and Spotify. Hard copies of both are available on iTunes and CDBaby. For more background and other projects, go to my website: (expired link).
Thanks for all your wonderful comments. They are what keep me engaged and exploring new artistic endeavors.
Here's to a wonderful and promising New Year!

Just a quick holiday update. In addition to composing and singing, I am also engaged in musical theatre. Currently I'm portraying Mr. Bumble from the musical Oliver which will be performed Dec 18, 19 and 20. After the holidays I'll be returning to work on the musical my writing partner, Allen King, and I have been working on for the past several years. After 3 successful workshop performances this past January, we are anxious to take the input received and continue working to make it better. Thank you all for your support. It's gratifying to know so many people appreciate what I do.
A Happy Holiday Season to All

Pleased to have so many fan(friend)ships on N1M. Thanks for listening and recommending. I'm currently taking a short hiatus to prepare for the role of Mr. Bumble in "Oliver" to be presented at our local community college the week before Christmas. Having a ball returning to some very "old" roots. Once a thespian, always a thespian. I guess.

For you who have listened and taken the time to subscribe, thank you. I'm grateful for your appreciation. Here's what I've been up to since my CD, "Collaborations", in 2010. In January I mounted a workshop production of my new musical "One Brief Moment", a sweet love story that follows a single couple from when they first meet and fall in love through mid-life crises and the bittersweet moments of growing old together. It was written in collaboration with Allen King (Book & Lyrics) who wrote lyrics on several of the tunes on the CD. We had a very successful 3 night run and the first opportunity to see this 3+ year project come to life. Received wonderful response from a smitten audience and also valuable input, critique and analysis from friends, family and professionals. We are now in the process of our first re-write; a lengthy process, but rewarding in the end with joyous moments along the way. I'll check in periodically when there's something to share.
