Marcus 390 Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 (12,13)I make a living writing music for professional musicians, ensembles, orchestras and institutions (such as festivals, etc.), and I'm also part of the adjunct company of TACT, a New York-based theater group (for New Yorkers: Our stage is the Florence Gould Theater, 59th street between Park and Madison), and I occasionally write for television and film in Norway. (2,3,6,7,8,9,11,14,15,16,17,18))I can read anything, and my ears usually afford me the ability to transcribe whatever I wish to.(10) I used to be a decent tenor/baritone, and I had singing lessons in my younger days.(1) Although I rarely perform in public these days, I had a career of sorts as a guitarist when I was in my teens. I play piano, but I'm not even remotely good. I am also an atrocious conductor. (19) Music is my livelyhood, my passion and my favourite pastime.(20) I did perform in educational/ school related bands years ago. And I have written some music for more pedagogical purposes.
