Do y'all remember, before the internet, that people thought the cause of stupidity was the lack of access to information?

Yeah. It wasn't that.

Amocanti Inc. and I are very excited to be presenting my "American Composers" concert with pianist, coach and new friend, Michael Scherperel. We hope to premiere this concert here in Indianapolis in the Spring of 2016 and take it on the road to Milan and Munich. Works of Rorem, Hoiby, Barber, Floyd, Morgenstern, Copeland and perhaps a surprise or two. Look for a Kickstarter campaign to raise the funds for the European trip. Keep following us on Twitter and here on Facebook for updates.

Looks like a great concert!

The expressive power and versatility of the harpsichord is highlighted when Grammy Award–nominee Jory Vinikour performs jaunty dances from Renaissance England, Domenico Scarlatti’s innovative sonatas, elegant suites by Louis Couperin and Rameau, and Bach’s Partita No. 3. Bach raised the partita form…

Next thing: Who wants a concert version of Tristan und Isolde in your city? Travel and housing money needed. Concert is already New York tested and, with a standing ovation, approved! Wagner societies around the country will not be disappointed. General audiences will finally understand what this great music is all about, because Amocanti knows how to put on a production :D Get in touch with me.

Thank you to all my FB friends who turned out last night for Amocanti's performance of Tristan und Isolde. It was a great evening and the audience was incredible! Will keep you up to date on our future as I move to Indianapolis. I hope to make some connection with the Indianapolis Symphony Orchestra to see about doing some concerts with us. Maybe another concert version of Tristan! Vera Wenkert, Curt Peters, Milica Nikcevic, Jeremy Griffin and of course, the incomparable music director of Amocanti Inc., Douglas Jay Martin, thank you from the bottom of my heart for the greatest evening I've ever experienced in the theater. I will never forget it. A big thank you to Christ & St. Stephen's Episcopal Church for hosting us and to the Wagner Society of New York for turning out in force and for their support.

Tristan tomorrow! Exciting and nerve-wracking. People coming in from all over the country. Wagner fans rule!
