Details:
Frederick Isaac is a Michigan-based pianist and composer(ASCAP). He has been a working musician for nearly two decades, starting out as a professional drummer while still in his teens. While pursuing his academic musical training, Frederick began to develop his own voice, taking in influences from both the classical styles and jazz idioms. The eventual result was the development of a unique and expressive tone palette which offers structure, imagination, and a strong melodic content. His works display an adherence to balanced forms and open improvisation, while also maintaining both the tonal language and avantgarde traditions.
Frederick''s experience ranges from being a keyboardist for rock legend
Ben E. King to accompanying for the famed Joffrey Ballet of New York. He also "gigged"as a jazz and salsa pianist, further demonstrating a well-rounded eclecticism. In more recent years, Frederick has been involved in accompanying/directing for professional music theater and writing/directing music for small chamber ensembles and church ministries, as well as being a college professor.
