The concert is Friday, July 17 at 8 pm at the Buckman Performing Arts Center at St. Mary's Episcopal School at Walnut Grove and Perkins. Seating is reserved, so contact West Tennessee Choro or call the Buckman at (901)537-1483.

I began piano lessons at age 6, trumpet at age 9, and began teaching myself the guitar at 10. My electronics knowledge comes from my father, who had the RCA television and stereo shop in my hometown of Pocahontas, Arkansas for nearly 20 years. My dad is still fixing televisions at age 79.
