"The PAD Bass adds depth and dimension to the orchestra´s sound..."

"With a Pad Bass, there is a constant bottom to the ensemble that enables students to quickly and easily develop listening and tuning skills along with confidence in their playing."
Stephen studied conducting with Jens Nygaard and Atilio Poto, a student of Arturo Toscanini.

" ...as we worked with the Pad Bass in rehearsals, we became excited about the potential of this instrument..."
"...you don´t believe me..?"
His music conveys numerous emotions...
Passion, anger, innocence..
...and behind it all...
...the real boy behind the man.
"...once I began using the Pad Bass, there was no question that its contribution to my ensemble was enormous..."
"...first of all, the ensemble now has a constant and unchanging fundamental for tuning and overall mix..."
"...the Pad Bass is not dominant, but subtly provides the depth and resonance we all crave in our band´s tone quality..."
"..good job!"
Steve's music expresses the true dichotomy of music - true feelings & emotions with technical and aural challenges for any age of performer...
