RECEPTIONS
He weaves a rich tapestry of expressive, rhapsodic
music to lend a sophisticated artistry to any occasion. His styles
combine the warmth of popular ballads with the refined sparkle of
semi-classical and classical favorites. He specializes in the love ballads
of the '40s and '50s called "The Golden Era of Melody," when the
lyrics were uplifting, romantic poetry and you could sing the moving
melodies.

Receptions, Conferences,
Conventions.
WINE TASTINGS
Growing up in a family that crushed grapes
with their feet and made wine, Joel Andrews has become an appreciator
of the finer wines of California. He once composed the score for a film about
the Christian Brothers Winery. In the '60s, he played his harp in
the tasting room of Beaulieu
Vineyards. The visitors were so enthralled the manager served
the winery's finest reserve wines so he wouldn't leave! He can actually
taste a wine and them inprovise music expressing its deeper qualities.
