MARSHALL STYLER From 1973 to 1986 Marshall Styler recorded and toured with the renowned Rochester, NY Rock band, Duke Jupiter. The band had seven albums to their credit on Mercury, Epic-CBS and Motown. In 1986 he decided to leave the rock-n-roll life and moved from his home in New York to Austin, Texas. Although he was the lead singer and songwriter for the band, he began to feel limited by lyrics and began composing instrumental pieces. In 1991, he released Camden Road, his first instrumental album. This was a compilation of live performances on synthesizers. "My music is not space or soundscape music. I compose instrumental pieces that have a definite structure based around melodies. There are no words to tie it all down so there is a certain dream-like quality inherent in my sound." "I consider myself an impressionist, in the spirit of the French impressionist painters - Degas, Monet and Matisse. They worked with color and emotion and have a powerful elegance that I strive for in my music." His original piano CD's include "The Trilogy" Bluefields, Mockingbird Station and Red River Crossing, followed by Jericho, The Twilight Concertos and lastly A Face in the Clouds. Marshall also has a instrumental Christmas CD entitled Silent Night.
