As a young man, I was sure I would become a rich, famous and much loved, musician.

In reality, I have supplemented my income, for 50 years by playing piano. The painful truth is, no one comes specifically to hear me play.

If you happen to hear me play, you might recognize the tune and hum along, but I wouldn’t dazzle you with frills or cause chills to run up your spine.

I never worked beyond the basic skills I acquired as a child. As a result, I make a pleasent, un-remarkable noise.
