  • Bio

    "There's two kinds of music: good and bad. I like both." - Duke Ellington Go to rohnflores.com (coming soon) for a complete bio, essays on various music-related experiences and topics, and various other stuff. Born and raised in Los Angeles CA. Studied piano and bass with Herb Mickman in Hollywood in 1984; acoustic bass with Dr. Metche Alexander Franke in 1984; electronic music, synthesizer ensemble (playing a Roland GR-300 guitar synth) and recording techniques with Alex Cima at Fullerton College in 1985; attended the Dick Grove School of Music ('87-88); studied briefly with the late great West Coast jazz pianist Lou Levy in 1987 at Dick Grove; studied piano again with Herb Mickman in 1989, and also with the fantastic keyboardist Liz Kinnon in 1990-91. Played more weddings and private parties than I care to remember, but loved every one of them. I'm an eternal student, always learning something from those gifted people who enter my life, from near and afar; past, present and future. YouTube: http://www.youtube.com/user/ofthislifeofthisart
