MUSIC PERFORMANCE
Tripp has been professionally entertaining audiences with his witty presentations and incredible musical style since 1980. He knows audiences and can add just the right amount of humor and pizzazz to his musical renditions to keep audiences enjoying every moment. From pop to jazz, country to rock - Tripp plays (and sings!) it all. He has played Broadway Shows for crowds of hundreds and the next night a quiet cocktail party for a business reception. With his many years experience, he's the perfect live music addition - either alone or with his long-time musical colleagues.

MUSIC EDUCATION
Tripp has taught music for nearly 40 years. Originally a performing artist with Florida's Cypress Gardens and Walt Disney World (on trombone), he eventually focused his musical performances on piano, organ and keyboard. He has authored 12 Teaching Methods on music styles and technique and has taught special classes, workshops and clinics across the United States and Canada. He believes strongly that creativity is an essential part of music - hence his subspecialty of jazz, improvisation, composition and playing by ear.
Tripp even offers virtual learning. Visit his YouTube Channel:
