Christopher was born in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1966. Hearing the music of Tchaikovsky at age 5, he responded by building a makeshift podium in his room and pretending to conduct. A year later, after getting a Monkees LP and the Mary Poppins soundtrack, he proceeded to make a guitar of sorts out of a yardstick, shoebox top, and some twine and rubber bands. These inventive beginnings have led to a life long career in music, and Christopher has been playing guitar for over 30 years now. In his teen years, Christopher started playing in cover bands doing material by The Ramones, Kiss, and Jimi Hendrix, and he soon branched out into jazz, blues, and other areas of rock. In his late 20s he stopped playing in bands regularly, to focus on serious composition. Self-taught up to that point, he began to study music privately, later acquiring a BA in Music with an emphasis in Applied Guitar. During that period Christopher focused on developing a high level of skill in the classical and jazz genres, as well as furthering his knowledge and abilities in rock, pop, and fusion styles. Christopher has over 20 years of private instruction experience teaching guitar and music theory to students of all ages and all styles. His love of many different styles of music enables him to apply the basic fundamental, unifying principles of music to any genre. In addition, he teaches classes and seminars involving music technology (MIDI sequencing, digital recording, scoring), and composes and performs his original music along with jazz standards and a classical repertoire.
