"You have no idea how much I admire your playing. Each time I hear you, I just feel very happy.  Your timing, melodic choices, dynamic range, and rhythmic feel are all excellent.  It amazes me that you are so skilled at different styles, such as classical, gypsy jazz, standard jazz, and more atonal jazz. To me it's one of the greatest things a person can do, to make exalted music that makes other people happy. So thank you for being the person and performer you are. "
-- Bryan Tucker, guitar instructor in Boston

Proud to be a member of Hot Club Of Boston!
