Composers & Musicians

The inspiring story of a courageous individual, a double amputee,  whose indomitable spirit led him to become a sports hero, successful physician, and internationally acclaimed singer with the 3 Irish Tenors.

Hear the incredible artistry of this Grammy Award-winning singer interacting with the audience and improvising original works and "inventions" on the music of Gershwin, Charlie Parker and others.

Ben Kingsley stars in Tony Palmer's film dramatizing the life of Shostakovich, who opposed the directives of Stalin and defied him with his music. 

A 3-part career path led Tynan from Olympic heights in sports to a medical career as a physician, and later in life to an international career with the Three Irish Tenors. Read about it, watch the story, and hear him sing. An amazing person!
