A Community Composer and Cellist

Since 2008, Daniel Sperry has been offering his unique gifts to the Ashland, Oregon community and to gatherings of people in living rooms around the United States. He is a composer of music that has been used for movie scores, and of “musical portraits” - compositions commissioned for individual people as gifts or to celebrate occasions.

Many of these compositions he plays during his seasons of performance in Ashland’s award-winning Lithia Park. He’s been playing in the warm months in the park for years; 2020 will be his 9th season playing most days of the week with the Ashland Creek behind him and a little meadow as his amphitheater.

In addition, Daniel has been called on to provide music for weddings, memorial services, art openings, and community dinners.

Daniel's mission is to bring beauty, elegance, grace and solace through music, to as many in his surrounding community as he can!

Playing in Lithia Park

During the warm season in Ashland, Daniel performs regularly in Lithia Park. You’ll find him in a spot beyond the duck pond as you enter the Park from the Plaza. As you get beyond the duck pond, there is a stone wall and some benches, a little meadow to your left, and the Creek to your right. He sets up facing those benches. Usually he will be there for a two hours. He generally keeps a regular schedule, based on the weather - not too hot, not too cold! - Wednesday through Sunday. You can find that schedule on the home page.
