REEVES'
DOCTORAL THESIS: The Vision Music of Casanova |
| His classical compositions have been performed by a number of virtuosi-- his Etude
in C minor for solo piano was debuted by world-class Hungarian pianist Yaroslav
Senyshyn at the University of Toronto. In 1997, with the help of his librettist/partner, Lina
Medaglia-Miller, he completed "Casanova,"
a three-hour, fully- orchestrated
Broadway musical. |
|
| His mentors have included such luminaries as
Healey Willan, Giles
Bryant, and
Eric Lewis. Not merely an academic
musician, Reeves spent seven years as a working musician 'on the road.' He was
bassist for 'The Heat,' a band that won the Q107 Homegrown radio contest in
1981. Reeves served as bandleader of over a dozen different
groups. |
