Why I Am a Musician & Performer

There has always been something inside me that makes me want to Play the music, “do” it, be “in” the music.  I can’t explain it; maybe it’s a magnetic force, pulling me into the music.  I can’t be satisfied until I’m “doing” it – “making” music.

Playing music, as well as dancing, make me happy and excited, and I am filled with unexplainable passions that only “doing and being in the music” can fulfill.  It seems that many people are satisfied by “listening to” music. But it’s different for me. Maybe that’s why I am a Musician.

Josh Grobin’s words, when he sings “Just Believe” are very powerful:  “Do what your heart is feeling!”  “Believe in yourself and your dreams!”  “Give yourself the wings to fly!”

I like this quote by G.W.F. Hegel: “Nothing great in the world has been accomplished without passion.”  It is difficult for me to write about or explain this.  Maybe it’s because “Music expresses that which cannot be said and on which it is impossible to be silent.” – Victor Hugo

I love sharing live music with others, whether it is our Duet playing as the live band for party entertainment, playing as a cover band in a public venue, playing music for weddings, doing a Jimmy Buffett tribute show, or playing for a family gathering.  It is very inspiring for me to learn and play music, but the most wonderful part is sharing it with others, sharing the beauty and inspirations with them.

I put my heart into my music.  Therefore when people tell me they are enjoying my music, it means more to me than words can say.  I am accomplishing one of my lifelong dreams.
