    Welcome!!!!!!
    To our journey together
    through
    The Wonderful World of Music and Sound.

    The Awareness of
    “The Wonders Of Music”, and
    the
    “Power Of Sound”
    will enable
    “
    T h e C r e a t i v e Y o u !”
    that lives within
    to build a better world.

    We hope your stay here
    will encourage you to study
    and to use
    your WONDERFUL
    FREE GIFT
    of MUSIC and SOUND
    to enrich your day,
    enhance your life,
    and change your world!

    * * * * *

    It seems that from the beginning of beginnings
    there was SOUND!  
    And then, from SOUND came LIGHT
    (I finally reasoned out that SOUND
    had to have come first,
    otherwise there would have been no reason to say,
    "Let there be light"!...
    Some things are obvious,
    they just have to be pointed out to me!!).

    So, if SOUND came first,
    then everything must have come from,
    or at least have been influenced by, SOUND.

    What a concept!

    * * * * *

    Singing and making music,
    and performing it everywhere they would let me
    has been a large part of my life.
    The study of Voice
    (everything from the great classics
    to pop, gospel, and country),
    Orchestral and Instrumental Music,
    Acoustics, Aesthetics, Science, Nature,
    and the Ancient Esoteric Literature,
    began to show me
    that this wonderful thing called MUSIC,
    (that I was hooked on)
    might actually be a FORCE
    behind the things
    that we take for granted as "Real".

      Now, let's just think about it...
    If things (everything???)
    came/come from SOUND,
    or at least were and are influenced by it,
    then We should probably at least try
    to understand what SOUND is,
    how it works,
    and how we can make the best use of it
    in our everyday lives,
    to affect our future, and our environment.

    Could it be that We have always had
    a remarkable "tool" at our command,
    and did not realize it?
    ...A "tool" that has been available to Us
    as something more than "entertainment"
    and actually has POWER???

      That thought began to grow in Me,
    and life has never been the same since!!!
    I hope You will have that same experience!

    We're off on a wonderful adventure!!!
    So, fasten your seatbelts and let's begin!

    * * * * *

    First, allow me to introduce myself.
    Music, and especially Singing,
    has been the love of my life
    from the very beginning,
    when I sang songs before I even talked!
    Ever since then I have sung,
    created music with everything
    that I could get my hands on,
    performed, studied, written,
    recorded, televised, taught,
    and earnestly sought after the Secrets of Sound,
    and how it affects everything in and around us.

    I hold a Bachelor of Arts degree
    in Music Performance
    and have had years of private Voice Coaching
    (including my treasured “Maestro”),
    who spent years coaching Voices
    at the Metropolitan Opera).
    I also hold Certificates
    in Energy Healing Technologies.

    Creativity is innate in all of Us,
    and We each have a responsibility
    to use that creative ability
    to make this world a better place.
    Perhaps if I share some of the
    joyous process of fulfilling my own life's work,
    that will encourage others
    to dust off Your precious dreams,
    and dive into those creative streams
    that are breaking forth all over the Earth!

    In the process of fulfilling my own life's work,
    which is to release beauty and the “Secrets of Sound”
    through Singing, Music, Poetry,
    Creative Activities, Teaching, Lecturing, etc.,
    I have:

    • produced, hosted, sung, and broadcast
      over 2,500 television programs,

    • done radio programs,

    • concertized in the US and abroad,

    • sung and spoken
      in international meetings and crusades,

    • recorded 9 solo music albums/Cd's
      in various languages,

    • co-authored an Early Childhood Education Guidebook
      entitled “For The Love Of Children”,
      designed to train Preschool Teachers,

    • published three poetry books and audio cd's,

    • developed a line of poetic greeting cards,

    • and have just recently published the first two
      “Secrets of Voice Development
      For Speakers and Singers”

      Cd courses with booklets.

    * * * * *

    The excellent front page positioning
    of my article entitled,
    “The Power of Sound”,
    which appeared in the
    “New Spirit Journal” newspaper,
    attests to the arising awareness
    of the IMPORTANCE
    of the “Power Of Sound” in our lives.

    Poetry Readings and Workshops



    Since I am a direct descendant of the Welsh Bards,
    writing Poetry and Songs comes naturally to me.
    As an Award-winning Poet, Singer, and Author,
    I love to share my own poetry with others,
    and to hear and inspire others
    to express themselves in a poetic form.

    Please contact me to schedule
    one of my Poetry Readings and/or Workshops,
    (See contact info below.)

    Click here to see schedule of upcoming events.

    Thought you might enjoy reading this excerpt
    from the introduction to my Poetry Series entitled

    “Meaningful Reflections
    Poetic Visions of the Cosmic Age”:

    “Dear seeker of those “deeper things,

    Come, share a cup
    Of tea with me
    And feast upon
    Some poetry

    Prepare your space
    To sit a while
    And hear the Music
    Of this style

    As you relax
    From all you do
    You'll find herein
    A peace that's true!

    Perhaps a tear
    Will then break through
    Or, perchance,
    A laugh or two!

    So, whether you
    Are by yourself
    With CD player
    On the shelf;

    Or whether with your friends
    Who share
    Your love for air
    That's really rare!

    Allow your hearts
    To take new wings
    And ponder
    These delicious things!”

    “For The Love Of Children”
    A Guidebook for Early Childhood Education


    This journey is for adults and children alike.
    Anyone who has children in their lives
    can learn to open the child
    to the AWARENESS of
    his innate ability to use and enjoy
    “The Wonders Of Music”,
    the “Power Of Sound”,
    and “T h e C r e a t i v e Y o u”
    within himself.

    In my international travels along this journey
    I found over and over
    the request coming forth
    from peoples of different countries
    about how to awaken this beauty in children.

    Upon my return home after one of my travels
    I connected with a like-minded Team
    of Early Childhood Educators,
    and we compiled the Guidebook we call
    “For The Love Of Children”.
    The Guidebook contains a wealth
    of Early Childhood developmental information
    and creative activities
    for children ages birth through 5.
    It was written so that anybody,
    in any part of the world,
    in any situation,
    could pick it up
    and use its rich content and workbook style
    to enable themselves
    to help the child(ren) in their care
    become aware of, and develop
    the creative wealth within themselves.

    a group of seven or more
    Parents, Preschool Teachers,
    Caregivers, Homeschoolers, etc.,
    who would like to have an introductory lecture
    on how to use the Guidebook most effectively,
