	Tom Constanten - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		Tom Constanten (born March 19, 1944) is an American keyboardist, best known for playing with the Grateful Dead from 1968-1970.
		With the death of Vince Welnick in 2006, Constanten became the only one of five Grateful Dead keyboardists (in addition to unofficial member Bruce Hornsby) who was still alive.
		In terms of recorded output, Constanten became more active in the early 1990s, releasing an album of classical sonatas, as well as two albums mixing original material with a few Dead songs, and one album (Dead Ringers) entirely composed of Dead and Bob Dylan songs.

		Witnessing Constanten venture far afield and land on his feet must have been something to see, hear and feel at the Somerville Theater, but it does not lose much in the recorded translation.
		Constanten does not trade too heavily on his connection to the Dead here - only "Cold Rain and Snow" and "Dark Star" are Dead tunes - but the final track, the sprightly "Dejavalse" does bear at least one degree of separation from his former group.
		Covering various stages of Constanten's career and different incarnations of his muse, it serves as a sort of unofficial retrospective of a somewhat unappreciated but nonetheless expressive and brilliant artist.

	Barnes & Noble.com - Artist Bio
		Following a stint in the air force in 1965 and '66 (to avoid the draft), Constanten rejoined Lesh as a member of the now artistically thriving Grateful Dead.
		Constanten brought an experimental influence to an already wildly eclectic (and just plain wild) ensemble.
		Constanten spent the '70s, '80s, and '90s mostly in the Bay Area, creating odd compositions, teaching piano, and playing shows around the periphery of the Dead scene.

		Tom Constanten composes and plays the ragtime of the gods, and this CD includes one of his best--the 'San Andreas Stomp', from his US bicentenial suite, 'The Syntax Collector'.
		Among these 21 cuts are ten Constanten originals, a Chopin, a Bach, a Haydn, a Curtis Mayfield, a Jerry Garcia and several explorations of traditional, classical forms.
		In describing one piece, Constanten asks, "When was the last time you encountered stretto and inversion at the same time?" Frankly, I don't have a clue, but for those who do, I presume it's a novel and grand experience.

	Embryonic Journey - Jorma Kaukonen - Music Reviews
		The contents are certainly a fitting testimonial to both the music and musicians, as the former Grateful Dead keyboard player and Jefferson Airplane lead stringman present real-time revisitations of one of the landmark sonic statements born of the late 1960s Bay Area music scene.
		What started as a somewhat tentative association quickly solidifies into improvisations rooted in their abilities to react and adapt as the definitive take flows organically, as if each instrument is an extension of the other.
		Perhaps in the ultimate irony, they conclude with a version that is nearly 180 degrees from where they began, as Constanten develops the melody and Kaukonen provides most of the atmospheric details.

	Tom Constanten : 88 Keys to Tomorrow - Listen, Review and Buy at ARTISTdirect
		But this compilation of previously unreleased live and studio recordings also shows the breadth of his interests, which range from the classics to stride, pop, and even electronic music.
		All but one of the tracks date from 1988-1998, the exception being "Electronic Study #3," which an 18-year-old Constanten constructed in Henri Pousseur's studio in Belgium in the summer of 1962.
		That collection of organized sound effects may be the most avant-garde piece here, but Constanten's later compositions are also fanciful conceptions that draw upon a wide knowledge of music and an apparently unfettered imagination.
