Angel Seminary where he did his high school studies, his college degree in philosophy and his post-graduate studies in theology. During this time, he also attended Willamette University in Salem for lessons in pipe organ performance. In 1973, after his studies in theology were complete, he began studying music history, theory and composition at Marylhurst College in Lake Oswego.
