I played in rock bands throughout high school and continued at Lebanon Valley College playing in their jazz band all four years. After college, I joined a lounge and show group playing 6 nights a week, booking out of Harrisburg, PA.

Yulia
Born:
The roots of Yulia Petrova’s extraordinary & exquisite technique as an artist & composer today, can all be traced back to the earliest days of her childhood, when she first discovered her connection to music by learning how to play piano at the age of five. Though extremely young at the time, it was instantly clear she had a genuinely special gift and exceptional talent for her age, and it was only three years later before Yulia began to compose her very first songs, establishing her passions & pathway forward in life.
With a natural skillset that was undeniably unique, Yulia attended a dedicated music conservatory in the city of Novosibirsk in Russia, and continued to educate herself both inside & outside of school. While she studied Classical music during her teenage years, she also expanded her palette in listening outside of school-hours, soon learning that her interests included Rock, Blues, Fusion, and eventually, even Jazz. Yulia’s love for multiple styles of music would come in more than handy – before she was even finished with her studies, she was already writing original songs for advertising companies and teaching her own students. Her diverse musical taste pointed towards her destiny, and helped shape her future to follow.

Jeffrey J Allison
Born:
In 1993 I received my Master's Degree in Music. At that time and as bills piled up I decided to pursue more lucrative endeavors outside of the music field and had not played a note in nearly 30 years. Then in 2021, I saw this ad for a Yamaha YDS 150 Digital Saxophone and decided to get one and see what I could do with it after all these years.
