Born in the United States, MJTTOMB became infatuated with music at the age of 14. Having no former experience, nor any musically inclined blood-relatives, it is rather a curiosity how he came to hear so much in music that casual ears just don't hear. He studies composition and clarinet under Mr. B. Rollins, and piano under Mrs. J. Atkinson. He loves all composers of the romantic era, but he leans toward the piano music of Chopin and Debussy. He loves the orchestral works of Grieg and Sibelius, and, like many, he loves the conducting of the late Herbert von Karajan, and he hates writing in third person about himself.
