Over the years, I have sung in bars, night clubs, restaurants, cruise ships, theaters, studios, churches, museums, libraries, auditoriums, gymnasiums, hotels, ski lodges, fairgrounds, parks, fashion shows, shopping malls and even a couple of corn fields. I have been performing professionally since the late 80's, as a soloist and with several bands, vocal groups, orchestras and opera & theater companies. My repertoire includes opera, theater, rock, classical, sacred, jazz and standards.
I have performed in several main stage productions with Lake
George Opera at the Saratoga
Performing Arts Center. Productions have included Mikado, Candide,
L'elisir d'amore, Susannah, La Cenerentola and HMS Pinafore. I also
was a member of LGO On Tour, a quartet that sang at fundraisers and
corporate functions year-round, for 4 years.
I am a founding member of A.R.I.A
(formerly Albany Ensemble), a vocal group performing dramatic, moving
and entertaining repertoire from the world's great musical traditions.
In 2005, the group did a 2 week concert tour of Poland, playing for
full houses and receiving rave reviews. We did the same in Bremen, Germany
in 2006 and 2007.
I served as a Cantor and music leader at Corpus
Christi Church in Round Lake from 2001 through 2011, where I sang
at weekly masses, weddings, funerals and other ceremonies. In 2004,
I was chosen to be the Cantor for the dedication ceremony of the new
church - a very rare and sacred event, performed by the Bishop. I was
also the Cantor for the Bishop's Easter mass in 2006, which aired on
3 tv stations on Easter day.
I have acted in productions with theater companies, including Schenectady
Light Opera, Spotlight Players and Northeast NY Family Players,
and I sang the roles of Dr. Grenvil and The Marquis in Glens
Falls Symphony's concert performance of La Traviata. I have performed
as a featured soloist with local choruses and choirs, most recently
appearing as bass soloist for Bach's Cantata #106 with the Schenectady
Choral Society. I also sing the National Anthem for events at
the Times
Union Center.
On the rocking side of things, I have fronted local bands Hung Jury,
Vision, Dr Sooss, The Sequel, Odyssey and Rainmaker, as well as Fallout
(Arizona), Fourgone (Connecticut) and X-IT (Connecticut). I am currently
the bass/baritone for the a cappella doo wop group, The
Flipsydz.
I perform as a soloist at numerous functions throughout the Capital Region - from parties to weddings to corporate dinners to fundraisers, and I AM AVAILABLE FOR YOUR NEXT EVENT.. Feel free to GIVE ME A CALL!!
