Nicole Sheahan on MormonTimes.com: Hatch's young dreams become reality
When David Glen Hatch was 3 years old, he heard a song on the radio during a dance class.
"When the teacher and students began leaving the class," Hatch said, "I spotted an old upright piano over against the wall, climbed up with short legs dangling above the floor, and began playing with two hands the tune I had just heard. My grandparents who were with me at the time told my parents about this interesting happening and decided I should be given piano lessons immediately."
That started it all. After piano lessons, completing MM and DMA degrees (Master of Music and Doctor of Musical Arts), and lots of hard work, Hatch has recorded and performed with chamber and symphony orchestras on five different continents. In 2000, his album "Let Freedom Ring" was nominated for the Grammy Awards for Best Patriotic Album.
