Along with his formal training (Warren Benson and Ray Wright at the Eastman School, and Michael Gibbs at the Manhattan School) Ted’s music is influenced by a wide variety of sources that include a lifetime of jazz and classical music, frequent excursions to lands with cultural traditions different than his own, and a keen interest in the compositional structure of other art forms. His music has been played in eclectic venues in festivals around the world from Finland to Philly, where the Philadelphia Orchestra recently performed some of his chamber music.
