Richard has been recording since 1997. Embarking on his musical journey with Through the Mind’s Eye with his own improvisational creative style of composing, he explores the complete range of the piano and keyboard over the course of his twelve albums .

Christmas Fireside and When Soul & Heart Collide reached #4 in the New Age Voice Radio Top 100 in consecutive months (December 2000 and January 2001).   To date,  Fogland (released in 1998) is still Richard’s all-time best selling album.  In all, eight of the albums have reached a Radio Top 100 list (either New Age Voice or New Age Reporter, now Zone Reporter).

At Heaven’s Edge, released in 2003, featured the Kurzweil PC2x synthesizer in a meditative ambient/space music release. Although a departure from Richard’s solo piano work, the recording process remained the same … no editing or layering of tracks.

After Richard’s relocation back to St. Louis after Hurricane Katrina, Richard has explored the synthesizer-based music more in depth. The result of this exploration is a trilogy of albums…Becoming Aware,Journey to Light, and The Clearing. At this time, of the three albums, only Journey to Light is available in a digital format. All three albums will be officially released in Fall 2011.

2008 featured the release of Dimensional Interplay a collaboration with multi-instrumentalist Bradford Smith, featuring Bradford on the Native American flute and Richard on keyboards.

Christmas Cradle, Richard’s fourth Christmas album is currently available in a very limited quantity as a pre-release special edition CD only. The album will officially be released in August 2011. At that time, it will be available for downloading as well.

Richard is also currently working on a non-seasonal acoustic piano album, his first since 2003′s Momente Intimate.  Look for it in February 2012.
