Steve Kalvi
I'm 38 years old and I've been playing the piano since the third grade, yet writing music is my greatest passion.
Have you performed live in front of an audience? Any special memories?
No. If I play live it's usually around the house when I'm entertaining guests.
Your musical influences
Beethoven, Mozart, J.S. Bach, Aaron Copland, Heart, Jimmy Page, Jimi Hendrix, Angus Young, Rush, Foreigner, Otis Redding, Bon Jovi, Guns N' Roses, The Who, Janis Joplin, Bob Seger, Nat King Cole, Josh Groban, John Denver, Evanescence, No Doubt, Elvis, The Platters.
What equipment do you use?
I use a Casio keyboard or the Wurlitzer Piano to do all of my improvising. I then use Finale Guitar to compose all of my sheet music along with Audacity to convert the Finale wave files into an MP3 format.
