As a conductor and educator, Greg currently teaches choral music and music theory full time at Southington High School,, and is the Director of Music at the Congregational Church in South Glastonbury, CT, where he curates vibrant, meaningful worship through choral leadership and community engagement. Previously, Greg has worked at Loomis Chaffee School and The Hartt School Community Division as a voice teacher, The University of Connecticut as a teaching assistant, Regional District 17, teaching middle school chorus full time, and St. Mark The Evangelist Church in West Hartford as Music Director and Organist. In Greg’s tenure at RSD17, his top choirs earned top honors in competition each year, and he consistently had at least 30 students participating in regional music festivals. At Southington High School, he has grown the choral department from 27 students to nearly 80 students in 3 years. Greg has had students from multiple positions attend High School All State, get a 4 or 5 on their AP Theory Exam, and go on to major in music in college. Greg transitioned from church singer to church director in 2017, when he began as organist for St. Mark the Evangelist, where he also directed the choir. In his time at CCSG, Greg has managed one of the largest congregational choirs in the state, started an annual Messiah Sing, rejuvenated the children’s’ music ministry, curated the monthly concert series, and produced and/or conducted larger concerts – including Faure Requiem with the church choir and collaborations on with professional colleagues from other churches and choral ensembles.
Greg’s compositional output is mostly either music he wrote for fun, or for function in religious worship. That said, he is interested in exploring more opportunities as a composer. He is credited on IMDB as a film composer for his work on the 1920’s Jazz-inspired Musical, Speak Easy To Me. Favorite compositions include: The Four Seasons of Robert Frost (choral), String Quartet No. 1, Fugue on “Truro” (Brass Quartet), Je Vous Salue Marie pour Notre Dame (choral), Elegy for Nana, and many more.
