Evening Glow Series: Michael Ford Pianist, Composer

All are welcome to join us for relaxing and reflective music to close the day.

Performances are followed by a reception with refreshments.

Starting at age 4, the piano has been Michael Ford’s voice throughout his life. He was trained classically and has been a student of all genres to this day. Michael is also a composer with many of the “greats” from all musical backgrounds, including Yo -Yo Ma, B. B. King, Alison Krauss and David Darling. When performing at the piano, his touch is both expressive, nuanced and inspiring.
