I played piano for many years but let it go because of life's many responsibilities. Listening to your music inspired me to play again and recapture that part of my soul I lost for a little while. Thank you :) Submitted By: Hope

Congratulations on 15 years of wonderful music! I first became introduced to your music during weekend beach trips with my husband. I instantly became a fan as your music has an amazing calming affect! Your songs were also played in the recovery room of the fertility clinic where my daughter was being concieved, as a way to calm and relax the body before and after IVF procedures. Amazingly, as an infant the only way to calm my daughter would be to play your music in her room, particularly if you sang! You have amazing talent, thank you for sharing that with us and our family!

Congratulations on 15 years! Dear Jim, Thank you so much for your beautiful and inspirational music. You've helped me through some very tough times. Listening to your CD's takes me to a peaceful, reflective place. I was able to take my mom to see you in concert last year in Kirkland, WA. She is legally deaf and blind, but still has some hearing and sight left. She had a wonderful time (as did I) as you are so much more than just a talented pianist - you are a true showman! We love you! Tammy Submitted By: Tammy Chavarria
