About the Music
One of the greatest challenges in producing The Sound of Art, my first collection of original compositions, was translating my ideas into a specific musical expression. In contrast, with Alternative, the music naturally fit the band's rock identity. The Sound of Art resists a definitive or constant identity. Some pieces remain untitled to preserve this resistance and to reflect their origins as free expressions, just as we are free to express ourselves in diverse ways. The Sound of Art is the first of my several collections.
SRYi Music
My formal interest in music began with the violin at age ten. I started playing the guitar at the age of twelve with the sole intent of someday being able to write my own music. Seven years later, I was the lead guitarist and songwriter for Alternative, a Los Angeles-based jazz-rock band. Decades have since passed. SOA (The Sound of Art) is the first formal recording of my music since those early years of Alternative and Canyon Crest Records.
