Mark Prigoff (of Digital Jazz Productions) has been a keyboardist for over 50 years. Mark has performed from as early as six years old and continued to do so throughout his musical career. Mark admits to both the advantages and disadvantages of being able to play just about anything he hears without sheet music. "I started playing whatever I heard when I was four years old and it's a gift which most sight-readers would love to be able to do. The downside is that reading the bass clef has always been difficult for me, but if I can read or hear the melody, I can usually fill-in the chords on my own, and there are plenty of PVC or PVG arrangements out there, especially when it comes to 'pop' music."

I have been infuenced by a great many artists from many diverse genres... To name a few, David Benoit, Bob James, David Foster, Earl Klugh, Ivan Lins, Dori Caymmi, Chick Corea, Oscar Peterson, Ramsey Lewis, Peter Gabriel, Tony Banks, Phil Collins, Chris Botti, Andrea Bocelli, and so many more!
