Michael is a composer and performer who aims to create music of a high level of artistic integrity combining elements drawn from his eclectic guitar-playing and compositional career spanning over 40 years. Elements of jazz, rock, classical, flamenco, Middle-Eastern and 20th-century compositional ideas present themselves in his playing and in his new works. His most recent CD "A Life" acts as a documentation of his past and present experiences and interests. His new works can be studied at his Doctoral web site www.mongrelmusic.ning.com.
