Keyboardist and composer Richard creates music intended to be a positive influence for himself, audiences, and society.
Richard has recorded 20 of his own albums as well as many other recordings for which he has provided compositions, performances and/or musical production. Trained in the classical and jazz fields, he has developed a heartfelt language in these genres while focusing a significant amount of his output on music for meditation, healing and inspiration.
Richard incorporated classical style improvisation on his first extemporaneous solo piano album, World Peace, recorded on the anniversary of the bombing of Hiroshima. He was then asked by a healing practitioner to play for his clients, beginning his practice of creating special "Musical Soul Portrait" recordings for individuals, couples and groups. This led him into creating music for healing, meditation and inner peace. Richard has released some of this type of music on the albums A Higher Dimension, Light Music, Music for Magnified Healing, First Rites and Sacred Music for Healing Hands Volumes 1 & 2, specifically working with healers, spiritual teachers, and/or organizations to create music to support healing work and higher consciousness.
Richard 's first two album releases with national marketing were Light from Assisi and Transformation at Assisi, inspired by spiritual pilgrimages to the town of Assisi in Italy where St. Francis lived. Richard also began groundwork for the 2002 project Camelot Reawakened with a pair of recordings -- Ascension Harmonics and the partially-orchestral Keeper of the Holy Grail -- with "spiritual attunements" by Samuel Welsh. "Our research for Holy Grail led me to the larger picture of Camelot," says Richard, who also took a trip to Glastonbury, England in 1995 to study the area. "I feel that the energies of Camelot still reside in places like the Abbey and the Michael Tor, the sacred hill which is pictured on the cover of Camelot Reawakened."
From 1996 through 2005 Richard focused on the creation of the CD and DVD/video Camelot Reawakened, which is based on the fulfillment of dreams of the heart for individuals and society. Related albums recorded during this time include First Rites and Music to Walk the Labyrinth. The Camelot Reawakened CD won a 2003 Coalition of Visionary Resources (COVR) Visionary Award. The DVD was a finalist in the 2006 award.
In 2003, RichHeart Music released Richard 's duo album with cellist Adriana Contino, who for several years was the principal soloist for the Stuttgart, (Germany) Chamber Orchestra. New Beginnings explores the delicate balance between inner and outer listening in free flowing improvisations as well as upbeat and lyrical compositions.
Richard 's latest CD, "Music of Peace" is a solo piano album intended as a remembrance of the peace which resides within each one of us. This CD grew out of his performances of "Music of Peace" concerts which focus on the qualities and expansion of inner peace.
