I've been participating in organized musical activities since I was 13. Besides Consort Anon. I've played with marching and concert bands, orchestras, and drum corps over the years. With the Consort I play recorders, Renaissance and Baroque flutes, bells, pipe and tabor, various types of percussion and harp. I used to be embarrassed that I couldn't sing well but with the support of my friends I'm no longer embarrassed about it. When not living in the 16th century I work for the country's largest non-profit organization, the government. My wife Mary and I are privileged to maintain the house for Master Catnap and Mistress Pussywillow. Music is for everyone--get out and play and sing!
