About Me (Must include at least one paragraph of biographical information about you as a composer) - blank or minimal answers on this line will cause your request to be rejected. Include a link to your website if you have one.
I was a professional musician in the golden years (mid 60's to mid 80's) playing six nights a week in smoky, sultry jazz clubs. My primary instruments are nylon string guitar and bass (upright and electric). I composed some at that time, however mostly played covers to keep the job. Now, I am retired from academia (professor of botanical science) and dedicate my time and energy to jazz composition. I am quite content with my now amateur status as I can compose just what I hear without a thought of commercial value. I expect to learn much from this forum and will contribute as well.
