...EXECUTED WITH A DEFTLY OFF HANDED BRAVURA... Stephen Holden, The New York Times

...SHEER STAGE MAGIC...Thomas Disch, The Nation

...THE ENTERTAINER WALKED ACROSS THE STAGE ON HIS HANDS, CLICKING HIS HEELS TO A JIG TUNE AND THEAPPLAUSE OF A THOROUGHLY CHARMED CROWD... The Star Ledger

I have various theme shows that use Dixieland, Swing, Country, Bluegrass, Vaudeville, Broadway, Standards, Irish,
Italian, Jewish and Original music.

The instruments I play include: banjo, guitar, mandolin, bagpipes, ukulele, harmonica, bones and tap shoes. I also play various ethnic instruments such as the digeridoo, balalaika, and cuatro in my Music Around the World Show.

In addition to the music and tap dancing, I also do hat tricks and Juggling in the Vaudeville show, Cowboy rope twirling and clog dancing in the Country show, and Irish step dancing in my Irish show.

I come to your facility complete with a sound system, wireless microphones and a tap dance stage.

DAVE MORALES dba SOUND ENVIRONMENTS
c/o MELODY FOR HUMANITY

Multimedia artists/musicians cover it all using modern creative technologies at their fullest, like Dave Morales a strolling minstrel with Love, skill and a "medicinal musical-minstrel's keyboard cart" that offers "Phenomenal results" to anyone working or residing in any healthcare facility. Advocating the powers of music therapy, he raises the bar and adds morphing & dancing customized pictures/videos in sync to the music, Live! Shown on the ceiling above the bed-ridden patients' bed or anywhere. All themes covered & great for all ages. This is a very unique presentation performance that is one of a kind and has endless possibilities. "Now it's up to the patients / residents, activities / recreation directors & musician on how to creatively implement these things to restore a sense of control." Especially to Alzheimer/Dementia and other mental health populations. Dave has experience in his travels throughout the world performing in situations from government activities to personal applications for the betterment of mankind at large.

He is a true visionary to the future of the alternative medicines world. Some of his recognized accreditations are from John Tesh, NYLFs' forum on "medicine in the 21st century" where he lectures annually at Villanova University by invitation, he's also a regular performer at the Penns Peak showcase show house in Jim Thorpe. PA.
"No Pills or Injections, Just Smiles"! He says.

And to quote JT-"As medicine heals the body-Music heals the soul!"

Presenting an outstanding repertoire, you can rest assured that your appointment with him will and have left people impressed & talking for weeks, they will want him back soon. "You could have him every week without the fear of repetition, he always has something new" says one former doctor that is now a resident/patient. He really does get to see miracles like those who don't walk, start to dance and those who don't speak start to sing. Not to mention his results with some mentally ill & comatose patients which are quite remarkable. Generally he keeps attention spans of at least two hours :-)

General regular results from these "distractional therapies" are:
· Relieved stress & anxiety within all present in & surrounding environments.
· Residents' cognitive memories improve for next few hours to days.
· Employee moral & production levels rise within the staff.
· Special moments of time and texture.

Dave Morales dba Sound Environments recently founded a non-profit organization backed by UPenn law school called "Melody For Humanity" where the mission can be furthered throughout your own communities. You'll love it. "Neat, Complete & Can't be beat!"
