| | Cantaloupe Music: A Ballad for Many (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-10) |
 | | Born and raised in the Bronx, Byron was exposed to a wide variety of music by his father, who played bass in calypso bands, and his mother, a pianist. |
 | | With 2000's A Fine Line: Arias and Lieder, Byron continued to blur stylistic borders by exploring and expanding the definition of the modern art song from Robert Schumann and Giacomo Puccini to Roy Orbison and Stevie Wonder. |
 | | Don Byron's upcoming CD releases are A Ballad for Many, an album of his compositions performed by the Bang On A Can All-Stars (Cantaloupe Music, June 2006) and Do the Boomerang, his interpretations of the music of saxophonist, singer, and soul/RandB legend Junior Walker (Blue Note, October 2006). |
