EJ Welcome

Pianist and composer Edward James has enjoyed playing his own piano pieces, beginning with Rambling Creek, composed at the age of 13.He began studying piano privately with Barbara Duffy in 1992 at 8 years of age and continued with her until 2002. While studying under Ms. Duffy, Edward James won five blue ribbons and two red ribbons in the Piano Teacher's Forum in Princeton, New Jersey. Other awards include first place in the Omega Psi Phi Delta Upsilon Talent Hunt 2002 in the Contemporary Instrumental Category and first place overall on the state level in Trenton, New Jersey. Edward James then competed nationally in Syracuse, New York and won third place in the Omega Psi Phi Fraternity Second District Talent Hunt in the Contemporary Instrumental Category.Edward James has also studied piano with Jose Ramos-Santana and James Goldsworthy, and composition with Jay Kawarsky and Joel Phillips, all at Westminster Choir College in Princeton, New Jersey.Accompanied by flutist Kimberly Hill and oboist Bethanie Shultz and Leslie Godfrey, Edward James started performing his compositions and familiar tunes on keyboard at dinners, assisted living facilities, and churches. Today, PlayByHeart’s performances include Edward James on piano with various combinations of strings, woodwinds and percussion. Contemporary Christian singer/songwriter Michael W. Smith is his role model and musical influence because, according to Edward James, he plays from the heart and touches people's lives with his music. Edward James hopes to do the same with his PlayByHeart ensemble.
