Album Notes

I was born in 1965 and raised in Euclid, Ohio, a suburb of Cleveland. I studied piano privately for 7 years while in grade school. I continued to play throughout high school and college, and have earned my living as a professional pianist since graduating from John Carroll University in 1987.

I have written and released three previous new age projects, a cassette titled Music in an Old House, and two CD’s: Crossing the Bridge and Still. I was also featured on a worldwide release for Narada Media titled First Light: Piano Solos.

My latest release HOME was written and recorded in April 2007. I had been planning to do another new age project since my last one STILL which was released in 1998.

I was inspired to write and record a CD based on my memories of growing up in Euclid, Ohio. Each song has a story behind it, and all of those stories can be found at my blog at www.myspace.com/johnbdehaas or you can cut and paste the following into your browser:

I hope you enjoy listeing to it as much as I have enjoyed creating it.
