SAXOPHONE

Born and raised in Texas. Fell in love with music and the saxophone and jazz in middle school. Attended the University of North Texas for Jazz Studies. Moved to Colorado to attend Colorado State and live in the mountains. Then moved to Georgia to attend the University of Georgia and play in a band. The band later signed with Willie Nelson's label Pedernales Records, and he moved with the band to Austin, TX to record a full-length CD. Toured with the band for a bit and decided that lifestyle was not for him, returning to Dallas, TX to finish his diploma at the University of Texas at Dallas. After graduating, wrote for the Red Cross, delivered Meals on Wheels, and went to work as a legal assistant for an attorney's office for over a year, and is now starting and operating his own, first business.

Hi, my name is Kaitlin Jansen. I'm currently a student at the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill, working toward a Bachelor's degree in English. I'm really into writing and editing. I'm also in marching band; I play the alto saxophone. In my free time I like to write, listen to music, and hang out with friends.

I am a sophomore in high school, and I take all AP courses. I am in the top band for alto saxophone. I love writing and science, mainly biology/chemistry. I hope to be either a neurological scientist or a geologist. I'm also a painter. I love traveling, and have criss-crossed the US as well as Europe. I'm currently training for a bicycle trip down the Sierra Nevadas, a 2400 mile ride. I spend a lot of my time either talking with friends or talking to my teachers about what's going on in the world. I'm open to new ideas and ways of thinking.

I have a degree in saxophone performance and teach woodwinds in the Los Angeles area. I also work for KPFK Pacifica radio doing news production/reporting/anchoring as well as public affairs specials. I also am an avid yogi and an advocate for mind/body/spirit wellness.

Brian has been in front of an audience in some form most of his life. He started tap dancing as a very young boy and proceeded to playing music. Drums were his first instrument followed by piano then trumpet/flugelhorn and onto saxophone. When not playing music he was writing music. His ventures branched onto acting with some of the local organizations. On the business side he has been heavily involved with business development, marketing and sales. He opened his own proprietorship in computer/network consulting and closed when he accepted a Network Administrators position with a local high school. Budget cuts closed that opportunity so he launched a full time clown business. His clown shows played on county fairs and community festival stages in both Illinois and Iowa. When he was not clowning he was training other clowns in such skills as makeup application, stage performance, clowning as a business and magic/prop work. He published "Clown Show 101" which is a working tool that teaches new clowns the skills associated with stage performance. He also launched a series of lectures involved with employment. He has lectured for local colleges in the area as well as other entities. His Job Search and Interview for Success lectures have been the favorites. On many occasions Brian has been asked for input at the college level with job search classes and placement assistance. Brian lead a team of individuals fielding Medicare Part D calls when the program was first introduced. There was a lot confusion and the call center posted the highest call volume of all its contracts. Brian's team offered enrollment assistance, responded to formulary questions and provided member support. A contractor that hosted a call center fielding IT support for a fortune 500 company hired Brian to develop and train its staff. Training was done in a classroom with dial in support. After a short while training was extended over the Internet utilizing WebX.

Born in 1984 in the small town of Texarkana, Arkansas. I am a divorced father of three and a student of life. I was always had a knack for creative things. I love writing and adore music. Currently I play the piano, clarinet, and saxophone. Had a turbulent childhood I guess you could say. When I was 18 was offered a full paid scholarship to a university here in Arkansas. I'll just say things didn't work out the way they were supposed to....as I always seem to have to learn the hard way about virtually everything, lol. It was not long before school was history and I found myself married with three kids. Again the tough road and then the divorce was even more difficult. Now I struggle between working and having a positive relationship with my children. This whole writing venture here is just an old passion I have decided to revive. If I can make a few bucks at it great; if not its still fun!

This is the title of the new Book. "The Ongoing Self-Education of a Musician and His Music. From Childhood to Manhood". The saga continuously regenerates it form. These are the Tales of the Indian Nation and The African-American Musical Journey into the 21st Century. I am a self-taught musician who has had some high school introduction into formal saxophone theory. I play guitar and have built my own personal studio for pre=production compositions. I play guitar, drums, keys and vocals. I have been a musician all my life semi-professional. I write my own songs and record songs and have even had a few played on the FM radio stations and throughout many clubs in Chicago, Minneapolis, Dallas and Philadelphia. Some of my works can be heard on Internet radio and websites. I have a burning desire to write and compose music with passion and soul. Being half Cherokee and African American, I feel a close tie to that rhythm of Funk, Soul and R&B. Since I was born and raised half of my life in Texas, Georgia and Florida I feel a great connection to Southern music including Gospel, Country, Southern Rock and naturally Blues. My teen years brought me to Chicago for an education in North-side Catholic religion and West-side Baptist religion, ghetto and suburban living both with unique musical influences that shape my musical background and taste. There has always been one constant in my life. That would be my faith that God has brought me here to hear and play the music. Music and the meaning for One man to many nations. This Universal Language is composed by the Artist, Composer, Producer, Performer, Arranger Writer and Engineer of Party International Records. A Tribute to the Performing Arts and the Fans, Friends and Families of Music.

Primarily, now, I play guitar and sing and write my own lyrics. I have journeyed through many spiritual endeavors and keep coming closer to a less organized religion and more of an open-minded spirituality where I know that God exists and loves us all. I am a 3 time college graduate. I graduated from Penn State with a degree in Audio/Visual Engineering. I graduated from Computer Learning Center with a certificate in Client/Server Programming and I graduated from West Chester University with a Business Administrative degree. I have worked with developmentally challenged adults in an environment which better aided their social development and helped to make them more independent. I currently reside with my best friend and her two boys in Pennsylvania and have a grand attitude of gratitude.
