Perhaps the piano in the Clubhouse should be moved to the dining room, and a young host's responsibilities be expanded to playing it as we enjoy dinner. At a recent, almost-impromptu concert after his working hours, Jeff Dundas impressed a fortunate, though small, audience of residents with his concert level artistry. Now scheduled for a full-blown performance on October 5, Jeff is willing for us to know a little more about him.
Born in California to a mother too young to keep him, he was adopted at the age of one week into a family of musicians, with an opera singing father. Toddler Jeff discovered the piano at about age two, was actually playing it as a four year old and began formal instruction when he was seven. Later his education included three semesters at Julliard and one at the Paris Conservatory of Music, as well as work with internationally known professionals.
Having recently graduated from high school in Maryland, Jeff's further training and career plans are on hold as he awaits assignment to the mission field by The Church of Jesus Christ of Latter Day Saints. Meanwhile, we will enjoy his cordial service in our dining facilities and, hopefully, have more opportunities to appreciate his talented musical offerings.
