to make an an outstanding first impression.

Mark Walther has been in the Information Services industry for over 19 years with the same company since graduating college from Concordia University in River Forest, Illinois. Starting out as a VAX COBOL programmer (anyone out there remember the VAX?), Mark became involved with IBM Mainframe technology (yes, the mainframe is still around!), slowly moving to Microsoft Windows development environments such as Visual Basic, .NET, and SSIS.
Mark and his family reside in Wheaton, Illinois, a beautiful western suburb of the Chicago area.
Besides designing websites, Mark enjoy spending time with his family and friends, listening to music (Philip Glass, David Bowie, David Byrne, Maynard Ferguson, Herb Alpert, Mike Oldfield, Johnny Cash, Bach, Mozart, and many others), playing the trumpet, home improvement stuff, grilling "everything", being outdoors, and especially playing with his daughter.
"Writing music for Mark Walther's design business website was just a matter of getting a feel for who he is and matching that feel in music. You do this with a mix of intuition and craft, using the elements of rhythm, harmony, line, tone color, and so forth. It's all about finding the right human feeling and being able to find music for that. It needs to work for Mark, but also be interesting and sound right to me.
For a taste of my music where I'm working with more involved and serious focal points of feeling, see my new CD, The Path To Peace, at
www.thepathtopeace.net, for which Mark Walther is the web designer and webmaster." .
