My Music
In addition to teaching music, I am also a composer, a producer, and a recording artist. My artist name is theSoulBelow. I wrote about how I balance teaching with creating music on my blog here.

Studio Christmas Album
During the winter season of 2023, all the students of Piano Belloso Music collaborated together to help me produce a full Christmas album, featuring 14 of their favorite holiday songs.
This was a massive effort by all, featuring not only piano and keyboard talent, but also violin, viola, clarinet, and VOCALS by students who are multi-instrumentalists.
As a producer and composer, I tried to use very original and unique-sounding arrangements, and in some cases, I created my own, synthesizing and programming additional band instruments (guitar, bass, drums).
The resulting album is one that we can all be very proud of. I released it to streaming platforms for the first year; but due to the costs involved in cover song licensing, I had to pull the album from the platforms.
