Keith Soltys, MMGI Artist
Keith has had a career in performance and production few can claim. Keith started playing clarinet at the age of six and saxophone and flute at the age of thirteen. He received his Artist Diploma from the Cleveland Institute of Music in 1985.
Some of the highlights of his musical career include the Lake Placid Olympic Games, representing the United States in the world-renowned Munich Competition, multiple broadway style shows in which he has been required to play as many as nine instruments, a residency at Carnegie Hall with the National Orchestral Association, performances with the Memphis and Little Rock Symphony Orchestras, and serving as Principal Clarinet for the Nova Filarmonia Portugeusa where he was a featured soloist on several European and Asian tours. As music director for The Capella Ensemble he produced the critically acclaimed “Music of the Napoleonic Era” receiving two Grammy ballot appearances for Classical Producer of the Year and Classical Album of the Year. Due to the innovative marketing strategies implemented by Keith on that recording he was offered a position with the Inside Sounds record label in Memphis, TN in which he assisted on the production of over 15 recordings. Keith became the company’s marketing and promotion director helping to set the foundation for Inside Sounds to become nationally and internationally distinguished as a preeminent independent record label.
