Collaborations

Over the years, I’ve enjoyed collaborating with various artists. Some examples include:

• Elvin Song from Atmosphere and Rock and Roll Rest Home from Earworms (these links point to Canadian Apple Music pages) by Chrissie Cochrane of TGV Productions
• Various tracks on the albums Prairie Airs and The Journey in Story and Song by Stephen Hardy Palmer

Other Compositions

Below are some songs I’ve composed over the years.

• Waking from Slumber (2021)
• A Quiet Place (2004)
• The WinAmp Song (2001)
  This is a jingle I composed for WinAmp, a favorite audio player of mine.
• Northern Lights (1999)
  When I heard my family discussing how beautiful the northern lights looked, I began to imagine how they would look from a visually impaired person’s perspective. That was the inspiration for this composition. This song was created using my first Roland keyboard, the E28, and Power Tracks Pro, my MIDI sequencer at the time.

Accordion Music

When I perform at seniors’ centres or live events, I mostly use the accordion. I began playing this versatile instrument when I was 8 years old, and started out with a small 12-bass Titano. Since then, I’ve gone through at least six accordions of various brands.

There are two styles of accordions: piano and button. While I’ve seen a button accordion, I’ve always played the piano variety. With a button accordion, the notes change depending on which way you move the bellows. There are also now digital accordions that incorporate electronics, such as MIDI, which allow you to perform with instruments like saxophones, flutes, and other accordion types. An example of the latter variety is the Roland V-Accordion series.

The following are various songs that I play regularly when performing live. Check back often as more songs will be added when possible.

• Budd’s Bounce
• The Westphalia Waltz
• Ten Pretty Girls
• Carolina Moon
• The Chicken Dance
• The Snow Waltz
• Unknown Song
  Note: This was a song I recently found on a cassette, but am not sure of the title or who composed it. Please contact me if you have any information about this piece.
