Livingston Taylor’s career as a professional musician has rattled along for over thirty years. He has toured-some might say, perpetually-with such major artists as Linda Ronstadt, Jimmy Buffett, Fleetwood Mac, and Jethro Tull. He has recorded eleven albums, and currently maintains a performing schedule of more than a hundred shows a year, which include club, theater, college, and full symphony repertoire.
A strong television background includes hosting a daily syndicated pop music show This Week’s Music for Viacom plus the occasional soap-opera cameo (reporter Sam Cocharan on the now-defunct soap Texas).
Now a full-time professor, Livingston has lectured regularly at the Berklee College of Music in Boston since 1985 and has taught a performance course there since 1989. The concept, and much of the inspiration, for Stage Performance come from those classes.
