Let me introduce myself. I'm "Papa Donald!"
I'm a musician, composer and writer. I've been havin' fun workin' with music and words and wrappin' 'em around feelin's and ideas for about eighty years --and by now I'm gettin' pretty good at it! I guess basically I'm a poet-philosopher, what in the old days you'd call a BARD! But it's no big deal. I can't help it! It's just who I am and what I do.
I'm a pianist, singer, composer, arranger, musical director, song-writer, actor, author, a playwright (on occasion) AND A DAD! But to me, it's all part of the same thing. Nowadays, bein' "Papa Donald" covers it all!
I'm still doin' it and I'm gonna keep on doin' it 'cause I love it and it's my way to say "Thank you, LORD!" and, maybe, pass on some of the fun and good times I've had and the good stuff I've learned over the years!
So that's what this website is all about! ALOHANUILOAKAKOU!
I hope you'll come back and see the crazy-quilt of surprises and goodies I've got for you! I promise you won't be bored!
