Michael A Bobb

Michael Bobb was born in Beckenham, Kent, England, in 1963. Classical music throughout its history from ancient times to the contemporary is a particular passion and, interestingly, he has been known to compose pieces himself. Love in its individuality, multiplicity and dimensions can be found in every aspect of his life. His mind operates laterally, and he is always looking for the quantum physical connection - of which, he has an inside track.
