WHAT I DO: I help elementary, middle, and high schools who have lost their music programs to bring them back—at no cost to the school—by providing outsourced school music programs nationwide. I provide a music teacher for band and piano that is fee-based to parents so the school can enjoy the benefits of the program without paying for the teacher, concerts, instruments, or music.WHO I WORK WITH:• Elementary Schools• Middle Schools• High Schools• Private Schools• Catholic Schools• Charter Schools• Community OrganizationsWHY IT WORKS: When school budgets shrink, music programs are usually the first casualty, yet parents still want the lifelong benefits of music education for their children.

My professional trumpet career includes playing with Tony Bennett, Mel Tormé, Ella Fitzgerald, The Temptations, Frankie Valli and the Four Seasons, and scores of others, including playing at President Clinton’s first inaugural in Washington D.C.  I founded Band For Today in 1983 because I value music education and all that it gives to children.
