or other cause for celebrations. It is from real life experiences

playing that he is truly a "healer of hearts." His love for
animals and the innocence of children inspire him to perform
numerous benefit concerts in support of such organizations as the
Humane Society, the Pediatric AIDs foundation and the American Red

the U.S. and around the world.
One of the nation’s finest pianist/composers, Danny’s many
recordings defies classification. He specializes in several music
styles: adult contemporary compositions, Broadway show tunes and
movie themes, and classical music. His original compositions tend to
be in the adult contemporary mode, frequently inspired by classical
composers such as Beethoven, Pachelbel and Debussy as well as by
such Broadway greats as Gershwin, Andrew Lloyd Webber, Jerome Kern
and Stephen Sondheim. His music is embraced across those genres as
well as in solo piano, new age, Christian and gospel. In fact, in
1993 and 1994, he was named by Billboard Magazine as a Top 10 artist
in the New Age genre. Three of his albums were included in
Billboard's Top 10 New Age Albums in 1992, 1993 and 1994, and he has
twice been nominated by the National Association of Record
Merchandisers as the Best Seller in the New Age category.
Danny’s destiny began to unfold at age four in Fort Worth, TX,
when he reached up and played the theme from Dr. Zhivago on the
piano in the family's living room with two hands. Recognizing an
exceptional gift, his parents arranged for study under the respected
professor, Dr. Harris Cavender. Since that time, Danny's life has
consisted of his love of music, the piano and his desire to share
his gift with others. His warm, outgoing personality combined with
extraordinary talent has enabled him to touch millions of listeners
through his recordings and concerts.
