Performing is personal for pianist Paul Cornish, a finalist for Indy's national contest
His journey to performing started at age three with a toy piano before he moved to a real one. He took classical lessons but improvised and composed on his own. Along the way, Linger has picked up the accordion, drums and more — a habit he made as a kid playing instruments around the family's home. He studied at the University of North Carolina at Greensboro and grew up in Waynesville, North Carolina.
"You never know. It could be a restaurant gig — that's New York. Sometimes you're just with an incredible musician," he said."The setting might be kind of funny, but you're still having a great time."Meet jazz pianist Esteban Castro, a finalist in a prestigious Indy-based contest
