Summary

  • I graduated from the Yale School of Medicine, taught Neurology at Penn State and Case Western Medical Schools, served as Neurologist in Chief at a US Army Hospital, Ft. Ord, directed an MRI Center, and practiced community Neurology and Ophthalmology. I'm in several editions of "The Best Doctors in the US." I have played in professional orchestras and music festivals, and in 1976 founded a leading organization of classical music and jazz in Pennsylvania. Gretna Music has produced and presented concerts by internationally-known musicians for 44 years. I just wrote Theme and Variations: Musical Notes by a Neurologist that is available at any book seller.

    • How the brain hears and makes music: Book and Blog

    The book shows how music can shape the young and the adult brain. Music helps us ​understand the brain. Understanding our brain helps us learn and play music.
