About American Pianist
Andrew Lloyd Walker is a pianist and private music instructor. He graduated Cum Laude with a B.A. degree in Piano and a self-designed minor in World Cultural History from Morningside College in Sioux City, Iowa. During the course of his degree he also spent time in Belfast, Ireland studying Ethnomusicology and Ethnomusicological Social Anthropology.
Andrew's past music experience includes alto and tenor saxaphone, Ghanaian djembe, Javanese/Balinese gamelan, piano, harpsichord, jazz percussion, classical and acoustic guitar, vocal performance, and violin.
Prior to graduating college he assisted in the construction of a period Italian Virginal harpsichord that was then donated to Morningside College. He worked for the National Music Museum in Vermillion, South Dakota learning about care and preservation of historic instruments and assisted with the coordination of the 500th Anniversary of Amati Festival.
In more recent years Andrew has begun delving into the audio side of the film and electronic gaming industries. Having scored a few small independent films and games and discovering the adventures therein, he hopes to continue evolving as a composer and arranger. He is also co-owner and CEO of Cribzero LLC, a start-up indie video game developer working on it's first retail release. Andrew also helps manage the music department at MAGFest, the Music and Gaming Festival held in the D.C. area each January.
Andrew now teaches piano privately in the Greater Des Moines Area in Iowa. He is currently working on the restoration of a 1923 Gulbransen player piano in his spare time, of which there isn't any. He hopes within the next year or two to begin construction on another period instrument.
