Patrick Wilson

Patrick Wilson grew up in a very musical family. His father played piano in his own tenor band that his mother sang in and his sisters also played and sang. Patrick recalls the first instrument he picked up and played at age 6: the triangle. All throughout high school he played percussion in band and was a member of the Chicago Youth Symphony, which was a wonderful experience for him. After earning his masters in music, he was given a chance to work at Alfred Music. The year was 1984, and Patrick has been there ever since! Over the years he worked in several areas of the company, has penned a number of publications, and became the director of human resources in 1997, which he has enjoyed very much.
