Douglas Jones- guitarist, composer, and consider myself an "Appalachian American" as I spent my formative years growing up in Blue Ridge Mountains of western North Carolina.

I am a professional musician and college music professor. I have played music since 1968. I began my career as a professional classical guitarist and now focus on composing and recording music for acoustic guitar. 



Producer and engineer in the classical recording business. Headquartered in Chicago with satellite studio in Krakow, Poland. Grammy winner. "Gramophone" magazine award winner for "Excellence in American Recording."

I am a British composer who specialises in music for theatre and have written several operas and musicals and a ballet. Alongside this runs an interest in writing music for the concert hall and works to date include much chamber music including a string quartet which made the finals of the Chamelion Composers' Competetion in 2000 held at Croydon's Clock Tower, a prize winning opera Fur (1998 Alan Rawsthorne Prize - awarded by the RNCM on graduation), and most recently a Piano Quartet (2006) which won the Primrose Composition Competition awarded by the LCM and has since been shortlisted by SPNM for their shortlist during the 2007 'Call for Scores'. Other music includes much orchestral music including in 1997, Towards the Gates of Heaven (first performed by the RNCM Wind Orchestra conducted by Clark Rundell) a vast tone poem depicting Jesus' resurrection into heaven. Also I have written several works for piano and organ (my two principal instruments) and music for the church. Works in progress include two musicals; 'Sirens' with book and lyrics by Anthony Dowlatshahi and 'Up in Arms' with book and lyrics by Laurence Roman. I graduated with a B Mus (Hons) degree from the RNCM in 1998, having studied Composition with Dr. Anthony Gilbert, and most recently in 2006, I completed a Masters in Theatre Composition at the London College of Music (music faculty of Thames Valley University) studying with Francis Pott and Laurence Roman (formally assistant to Andrew Lloyd Webber at RUG) and was awarded a Pass with Merit. My music can be heard on myspace and youtube also.

Tony’s solo music project, ‘Time Train’ is an eclectic journey down vintage tracks laid on music’s landscape from 1950 to the present. His ‘Sunset Blvd.’ marries a unique blending of keys and styling in a menu for fine dining.
