Here are some selected favorite links of mine. Have fun and enjoy!!!
Music and Musician sites :
Ken Palmer - Ken was my very first and therefore most important piano teacher. Based in St. Louis, Mr. Palmer is an outstanding pianist and composer worthy of international recognition. Check out his beautiful and deep solo piano recording "in a quiet place." Mr. Palmer is the music director at the Unity Church in St. Louis, where he premieres new original works frequently. He also holds a doctorate degree in composition from Washington University. Can you tell I think highly of his musicianship?!
