Dr. Ronnal Ford plays two entire families of orchestral instruments, but when asked about his primary instrument he says, "My primary instrument is what I'm getting paid to play at the moment."
Ron has played all of these instruments and more for theatre and other venues. He is an educator and very active as a performer. Among his projects is The Ron Ford Orchestra.
He also describes how major illness nearly derailed his life, career, and quest for a doctorate, and overcoming that. And as you'll hear every few minutes, he is not only not afraid of a challenge, but is invigorated by it.
You can follow Dr. Ford and all of his projects at https://www.ronfordmusic.com/ at https://www.youtube.com/user/fordronnal and on Facebook, Instagram, and Twitter @RonFordMusic.
