Favorite Steely Dan Tracks – Kid Charlemagne and Gaucho
Dan currently teaches in Narragansett, Rhode Island, where he is the director of the High School Concert Band, Jazz Band and Concert Choir, as well as the 6th through 8th grade bands. In his time in Narragansett, Dan has also taught Guitar Class, Piano Class, Music History and Music Theory.
Last May, Dan completed a Masters Degree in Instrumental Conducting at The University of Rhode Island, where he was inducted into the Pi Kappa Lambda Honor Society for exceptional academic and musical achievement. He also completed his undergraduate studies at URI, where he graduated magna cum laude in 2007 with degrees in Music Education (focus in voice), and Music Performance (focus in Classical Trumpet).
As a trumpeter, Dan can be found exceeding the speed limit all over the state on his way to various musical endeavors including theater pit work, weddings, parades, masses, and many other events. Dan is psyched for the opportunity to perform with the great musicians in “Hey Nineteen”, and can’t wait for our next show!
