P & J Records

Donna initiated piano studies at age eight. By age twelve, she was completely absorbed in her music, and it was clear that her life would be devoted to such. She moved on to study trombone, euphonium, melodic percussion, and organ. Her solo piano career began at age fifteen, when she started performing publicly. By seventeen, she had begun accompanying community theater productions and presenting formal recitals. She went on to earn a Bachelor of Music degree from Nicholls State University (Louisiana) and a Master of Music degree from the University of New Orleans. She is currently a member of the School of Performing Arts faculty at Nicholls, where she teaches piano and serves as Staff Accompanist. She also maintains a private piano studio and is the organist/pianist for the First United Methodist Church in Houma, LA. P&J is honored to be able to capture some of her performances on this recording.
