Travels with Stephen -The Most Famous Unknown Conductor

Having spent a career as a guest conductor with over 100 orchestras and served as a Music Director with two orchestras, I have collected a wide variety of experiences. These experiences have included teaching conducting to Senator Joe Biden, conducting the seventh inning stretch for the Philadelphia Phillies in 1973 for the national league Pennant and being interviewed on QVC and HSN. The memoirs are filled with musical as well as social stories about the travels that I have experienced. As the first American artist behind what was "e;the Iron Curtain"e; to travel around Pablo Escobars rancho, the memoirs are filled with annecdotes and stories about artists as well as locations. It has been a pleasure to commit to paper the stories with Ray Charles, Van Cliburn,me Ben E. King, Andre Watts, Itzhak Perlman and Martina MacBride.
