Carl Sauter began music lessons at a young age, beginning on trumpet and starting piano a year later. By the time he was 16, he was teaching piano lessons to several students and studying with Lincoln Mayorga (a pedagogical descendent of Beethoven and Czerny, among his many credentials).
Since then, Carl has gone on to receive a Bachelor of Music in Composition and a Bachelor of Science in Bible from Philadelphia Biblical University, working as a sound engineer and music theory teacher assistant.
Since graduation, Carl has joined American Society of Composers, Authors and Publishers (ASCAP).
Although Carl’s education has been based on classical roots, he enjoys many styles of music. “Blessed Be the Lord Our God”, a modern worship song, was recorded by colleague Rich Curry as a demo in Nashville.
Currently, Carl lives in central coastal Maine with his wife, Jenna.
