Dan's arrangements are unique, engaging, and are carefully crafted and tailored to the group he is writing for. His arrangements have a superb combination of musical artistry and fun showmanship that will play to the strengths of any ensemble!

The Sound of Illinois has had the pleasure to work with Dan on a number of arrangements. Every one of them has been outstanding! He knows how to capture the essence of the song and give the performer a vehicle that will delight audiences. Dan is truly becoming one of the best arrangers in our Society. HIGHLY RECOMMEND!!

Director, Sound of Illinois Chorus
Dan is a consummate musician who hears the attitude and mood of the piece he is arranging already in the voice of the performer before he writes the first note down. My quartet has greatly enjoyed the pieces he has written for us, and have used them in shows and competitions to great accolade. His is an artistic voice in the rise and deserves to be heard.

Dan is one of the best arrangers in the barbershop world! He consistently produces fun and interesting arrangements that are easily singable. They're exactly what any group at any level would want!

Dan's work on "Butter Outta Cream" is amazing. I know an arrangement is good when I love it. I know it's great when I'd wish "I'd" arranged it.

Dan recently arranged a song for my quartet. I have had custom arrangements done for prior quartets and choruses that I have been involved with, and this is one of the best experiences I have had working with an arranger. Dan committed to a reasonable completion date from the outset and he finished ahead of schedule. The final product is amazing. Dan is a pleasure to work with, he was very collaborative, and was able to make some small modifications in order for it to fit our quartet perfectly. Dan is insanely talented and I have no doubt that he will be/is one of the premier arrangers in barbershop for many years to come!
