Testimonial "As producer for our GoldPan video presentation, Steve created a hard-hitting piece that is remembered by all who see it. Through his efforts, and a unique combination of original music, narrative, and "on-location" video, we were able to excite our audience with the story of our project and its accomplishments. "Steve was able to keep us
focused upon the basics. Faced with verbiage and technical
detail, he helped us to refine our message and ensure that it was
delivered to our audience with maximum emphasis. I have
recommended Steve DeDoes to others, and he would be our first choice
for producing future presentations."

Testimonials "When DAG produced 'The Vast Difference' at the Gem Theatre, we were unable to conceptualize an appropriate radio commercial for the show. How do you present the concepts of a two-hour play in sixty seconds ? Steve took on the project, created the music, wrote the dialogue, and supervised the whole production in only a few days. It was the best radio spot heard in these parts in a long time." Peter Bellanca Producer, Detroit Actors' Guild "Steve's music was clever,
inventive, and very funny. Without a word from me, he
understood what I was trying to do. Then he made it
better." |

Review "Intelligent writing and solid performances distinguish Michigan Christmas Air, thanks in large part to the handiwork of Steve DeDoes. He plays a tasteful piano accompaniment to singer Kristen Ryan on "I'll Be Home for Christmas," which begins with "Every Year," a free-tempo miniature written by DeDoes to function here as an introduction. He contributes more extensive compositions as well, including a reflective piece titled "The Air at Christmas," played by the Western Brass Quintet. He even adds lyrics to the words written by legend Don Sebesky on "Hurray for Christmas." "In his arrangements as well as his
playing, DeDoes embraces a sophisticated aesthetic while leaving room for
the players to express themselves. His quartet chart for "Let It
Snow" gives vibraphonist Cary Kocher and pianist Matt Michaels room
to burn through the kind of fully notated passages heard too seldom in the
work of small groups. And his reharmonizations at the end of "The
Christmas Song" guide Chris Collins' soulful tenor sax fills and the
mellow vocals of Harvey Thompson to a satisfying finale. |
