Musicianship
Millbury Sutton Summer Community Band
I founded this group in the summer of 2007, and since then it has become one of the most widely recognized community ensembles in Central Massachusetts. Over the years, I have purchased a running library of over 75 pieces of music that I own through receiving multiple grants. The group specializes in performing music from many genres including Broadway, movies, jazz and classical repertoire. Each year, I have over 50 members that rehearse once a week in the summer to put on a variety of concerts including an "Instrument Petting Zoo", 4th Of July Fireworks, and many other local concerts with historical landscapes.



Music Arranging
For school and private groups I have done several of my own custom arrangements for the following:
Percussion Ensemble
Marching Band
Pep Band
Jazz Ensemble
Combos
Modern Band
Dan Ferreira Music
I am a partner in a music business with my father branched out under the Meadow-Larks called the Boston Jive Hive. I book and play for many different events. While I no longer live in Massachusetts, I still book gigs and musicians often.
Professional Jobs
At the University of Massachusetts, I studied in the Percussion Studio of world renown Eduardo Leandro and also under DCI Hall of Famer Thomas Hannum. I believe it is an important part of life as a musician to stay active by performing and continuing to study and perfect our craft.
As part of a Claflin Hill Symphony Orchestra Outreach program I participated in an television interview to meet the musicians. Feel free to check that video out here:
