Vision Quest Concerts Presents Solo Piano Concert Featuring Lee Bartley Lisa Downing Kathleen Ryan
Lee Bartley    is well known as the principal composer and keyboardist for the Denver-based and very popular classical jazz group, "Images."

With "Images," Lee recorded six national releases, among them CDs for both MCA Universal Masterseries and Capitol Records, charting as high as #8 and #9 in R&R Magazine for national radio air play.  As the principal composer for "Images," and as a soloist, he has recorded over 40 original compositions.

Lee is a Colorado native, and has played piano for 53 years, with studies in both classical and jazz piano.  Lee is a graduate of Denver University with a degree in music theory and composition.

In January of 2000 he released his first solo piano CD, "Adrift in Time" a collection of 15 uniquely beautiful and original compositions.

Lee has recently released his second solo piano CD, Lee's most recent solo piano release is entitled "A View From Above."  This solo CD is a diverse collection of songs, rich in harmony and technique, with a refreshing emphasis on melody.

Lee's music is played regularly on Whisperings Solo Piano Radio Station created by David Nevue.  Recordings of Lee's solo CD can be ordered on his web site: www.leebartley.com or on CD Baby.

Lisa Downing   has lived in the Denver, Colorado area all of her life and has been actively composing and performing solo piano in the Denver area since 1982.

Lisa has a passion for writing and performing original music for solo piano.  Her premier album is entitled "Think On These Things," released in 1991.  This collection of original solo piano compositions might be classified as "Neo Classical" or New Age.  Melodic reflective and contemplative pieces will generate peaceful visualizations that are perfect for quieting your world and centering your soul.

Lisa's Holiday CD, "Christmas for Two," offers traditional holiday music with original solo piano arrangements.  The melodies are all familiar and recognizable to her audience.  Kathy Parsons of MainlyPiano.com says: "...it's excellent from the first note to the last..."

Lisa's most recent recording, "A Delicate Balance," is Lisa's newest collection of original solo piano compositions.  An intimate expression of the personal moments in her life, this CD is an inspired collection of solo piano impressionism.  Lisa is completely re-defining the genre in this technically impressive and soul-touching masterpiece.

Lisa's recordings are featured on the internet radio stations "Whisperings," "Sky.fm " solo piano radio," Pandora," "Calm Radio," "New Age Piano Radio," and broadcast radio worldwide.

Ms. Downing also owns Vision Quest Entertainment, originally her own record label and now also a talent agency in Colorado since 1982.  Vision Quest represents over 1200 musicians and event services in the Denver/Boulder area.

Please visit her website: www.LisaDowning.com to learn a little bit more about Lisa, and hear samples of her music.

New Mexican Kathleen Ryan has sought ways to "sing the piano"--that is to transform the piano into a medium as intimately expressive as the human voice.

"When I am composing," she says, "I don't necessarily hear music inside.  Instead, I experience a subtle dissatisfaction until the sounds my hands create match the deeper emotion I feel within."

These deeper emotions Kathleen strives to express in her music can be anything from rollicking to serene.  Strong musical structure combines with beautiful melody and powerful rhythm, resulting in piano music that is direct, appealing, and unusual.

Kathleen has published three CDs of her piano compositions.  "A Handful Of Quietness" was featured in the Emmy winning Iowa Public Television special "The Four Seasons."  "The Rebirth Of Light" (2007) has garnered glowing reviews for Kathleen's deep probing of traditional Christmas Ccarols.  Her newest CD, "Under The Greenwood Tree," was released in August 2009.  All three recordings are featured on Whisperings Solo Piano Radio Station created by David Nevue.
