From Deodato to Michale Feinstein.His Madrigal Group performed at the premiere of ROBIN AND MARIAN and his Country-Western band for the South African equivalent of the Kentucky Derby.

Other television work includes the soundtrack PBS BIOGRAPHY, LIFESTYLES OF THE RICH AND FAMOUS, CNN TRAVEL SERIES, and the Jane Leeves sitcom THROB. During its original New York run, he conducted LITTLE SHOP OF HORRORS. He has appeared in several Broadway and off-Broadway shows as an actor/musician.
