Sharing classical music is what I do. It's what I've done since 1971 (yes, I did start young).

During most of those years, you could hear my voice wafting (some might say spewing) from the AM and FM transmitters of Los Angeles radio stations KFAC, and K-Mozart.

For some of that time, I juggled programming for three major markets as Director of Programming for the California Classical Network, which consisted of several stations covering San Diego, Los Angeles, and San Francisco. Juggle is the word, too, since most of the programming was different for each market. As I recall, that's when a started sporting a few gray hairs.

Outside the studio, I've produced and hosted remote broadcasts of concerts and other classical-music related events, including the popular Hollywood Bowl Guest Conductor Competition.

I have served as the primary pre-concert speaker for several organizations, and regularly appear as Master of Ceremonies at their concerts and events. Speaking of being involved in listener activities, it was a pleasure to host listener tours to Europe. Although I apply the word pleasure, I expect that you understand that these tours are actually hard, exhausting work. Yes, tough work, but someone has to do it, and I never foist the grueling job onto someone else.

Along the way, I earned a Master of Music degree in composition, and I do my share of composing, conducting, arranging, and recording.

My work also includes independent voice-over sessions, some television, and a appearances in two films about the Los Angeles Philharmonic Orchestra.
