Dave Schindele was born in Seattle, raised in New Jersey and lives in Madison. He fell in love and has blossomed as a poet, philosopher, keyboard musician and singer, making music the his core of living. As Dave states on his website, music embodies, it expresses, it comes forth, it throws into the future, it knows what we don't yet know. Life is so good! Walter Burt long ago wrote a lot of vocal/piano-"art songs" and often wished "If only I had a publisher!" Alas, he turned to the dark side, becoming a computer programmer. But after co-founding Madison's online music publisher Musicnotes.com, he realized his time has come. With help and encouragement of his friends Dave Schindele and jazz vocal stylist Marilyn Fisher, he's been burnishing his material and sharpening his chops.
