I have played many styles of music on the recorders. These examples below represent the many styles which include improv, jazz, world, meditative, baroque,and original music. I also sing and play various instruments which include dulcimer, Chinese Xing, Chinese and Indian Bamboo Flute as well as recorders and voice.
