In 2006, Michael performed with the Tucson Symphony Orchestra as the winner of the high school division of the TSO Young Artist’s Competition. After graduating from high school and the Arizona Jazz Academy (now the Tucson Jazz Institute), he attended the Jacobs School of Music at Indiana University and studied with master musicians James Moody, David Sanchez, David Baker, and Otis Murphy. He was hand picked to attend the exclusive Steans Music Institute at the Ravinia Festival in Chicago, where he performed his original music with the top young jazz artists in the country, including Remy LaBoeuf and winner of the Thelonius Monk Competition, John Irabagon.
During a sabbatical from his university studies, Michael toured the U.S., Canada, the United Kingdom, Botswana, and South Africa with Zimbabwean music legend Thomas Mapfumo as a member of his band The Blacks Unlimited. During this time, he also worked as a woodwind specialist aboard the vessels of Princess Cruises, where he saw the world and gained valuable professional experience.
Michael, now 27, is a graduate of the University of Arizona. He teaches saxophone, flute, and clarinet lessons at Chicago Music Store, and can be seen performing around the greater Tucson area at venues such as Loews Ventana Canyon Resort, Pastiche, Monterrey Court, and many more. Michael is passionate about delivering cutting-edge original music to the Tucson community, and and has just released his debut album, Chronicles!
