[/ezcol_1half] [ezcol_1half_end]Fej is a product of The Curtis Institute of Music (class of ’75) where he studied with Alexander McCurdy, Rudolf Serkin and Max Rudolf. He has been the long-time musician at historic Gloria Dei (Old Swedes’) Church in Philadelphia, PA and is a musician with the Dance and Theatre departments at Muhlenberg College in Allentown, PA.
Fej divides his time among many endeavors, most notably with theater and dance as a composer and conductor, but also as a concert organist and pianist. To this one must add his work as a sound and lighting designer, photographer (the covers of three of his ARKAY releases – Incantation, Tyme’s Escape and OUTBURST!), audio systems designer, auto mechanic and sometime sculptor (witness the cover of ‘On Making the Flowers Dance’ – designed by Fejko with flowers by Gretchen Ernest.
As of this time, he has recorded 13 CDs of large European and American organs, covering a wide range of existing repertoire and his own improvisations.
In 2003 he founded and is now the Artistic Director of ‘The Chester Performing Arts Project’, a foundation dedicated to bringing world class performing arts to the formerly depressed industrial city of Chester, PA. His André Café Acoustique in Chester is becoming well known in the region.
