Sobre mim

I play the piano and I dream about playing like Bill Evans. I'm the only one out of 4 sibs who did not major in music. We were all classically trained and I was too rebellious to follow through, but my love for music did not stop with the lessons. My rebellion predictably led me to a steady diet of rock music until I finally outgrew that and discovered jazz in my twenties...okay, so I never REALLY outgrew Todd Rundgren :)...anyway, I was lucky enough to be living in Philadelphia at the time where jazz was everywhere and I learned a lot. I don't live there anymore and feel out of touch, plus I enjoy exploring and learning more about other genres, so here I am!
