Hi! I'm Gerd Walter
with some of my music-and-computer-students!
I'm teacher for music and ethics here at the
Caecilien High-School in Oldenburg. I live
near Oldenburg with my wife, my daughter and our cat Jackie. My favourite
holiday-village is
Kühlungsborn. a german
seaside-resort near Lübeck and Rostock/Warnemünde.
I like any good music of all kinds.
A little much more I like The
Beatles, Blues, Rhythm 'n Blues, Rock 'n Roll and
Bruce
Springsteen. I like to hear Hard Rock and Heavy Metal, too. I have much
respect of
Leonard
Bernstein because of his competence in classical music and Jazz.
Over 10 years I played keyboards in a Soulband (14 musicians) called
COALTRAIN.
We recorded several LP's and CD's with this band.
Over 20 years I'm Blues&Boogie piano-player and singer. Together with
a drummer I did live-gigs in Germany under the name:
THE-GOOD-OLD-BOOGIE-BLUES-PIANO-DUO
Since 2004 I´m keyboarder in the Hard Rock and Classic
Rock Band ROCKFIRE. I play
piano, Synthesizer and mainly Hammond Organ. My Organ Style was influenced
by Jon Lord (Deep Purple) and Ken Hensley (Uriah Heep).
In 1992 together with my friend
Wolfgang
Reinfeldt, who is informatic-teacher at the Caecilienschule, we founded
the
TELECOMMUNICATION AND MUSIC-WORKSHOP at our school.
Since that day we lead through several projects.
My part is the
ICC-Project
International Music Composition Project
with composition-partners all over the world.
Between 1999 and 2000 I was Coordinator for Music at the German-School-Server
"SCHULEN
ANS NETZ".
By the way: Hear my song "In the middle of the world is Rock"
You can download it for free, if you want, because I´m the composer and texter and have all Rights of this song.
