Tell me about your history? How did you get where you are now?
Iris started playing the piano at the age of 5 with a lady who used to hit her hands every time she played a wrong note! In spite of this she has passed all the practical exams for the piano and clarinet. She has teamed up with Chick Holland of Lahaina UK to produce her latest CDs "Autumn Shadows" and "Nature's Symphony". She composed and played the piano pieces and Chick orchestrated them expertly.
