Clipper Erickson, a member of our Bucks County Association of Piano Teachers, has released an album featuring the piano music of David Finko, Richard Brodhead, and Modest Mussorgsky!
In an interview with Clipper, David Finko, and Richard Brodhead, Clipper talks about how he first met David Finko in 2003 and began to play his music. David wrote a Sonata for Clipper and in 2013, Clipper promised to record all of his pieces that he had performed. In 2011, Clipper asked his friend, Richard, to write a Latin piece, Tango Sonatina. He also wrote Sonata Notturna. This piece showcases the musical letters of Clipper's name: C,E,C,S (Eb).
