      Don is an entertainer and teacher with strong vocals, accomplished guitar and harmonica skills and a pleasing, humorous stage personality. He gives VOICE and GUITAR lessons in his studio,  Rainbow Music (click  button for details on music lessons and call him at 860-659-8992 for a  music evaluation of your child's pitch and rhythm skills). He offers 11 different shows - 6 for children and 5 for adults. Please click on a show on the left side of this web site for details on a particular show. You can also hear SONG BYTES of various songs at these show sites. His audience-handout Song Request List has over 300 song titles divided into 8 different categories.  He is the Founder and Director Emeritus of the Connecticut Songwriters Association and has performed thousands of shows since 1979 when he went into music full-time.

"I believe learning occurs best when presented through pleasurable arts forms. People feel good about themselves when they actively participate in cultural arts programs.  My shows are dedicated to the fact that music not only brings pleasure and comfort to all ages but also raises self-esteem by stimulating creativity". - Don Donegan
