In 2005, he earned the Deems Taylor Award from ASCAP for radio broadcasting, citing his work on 20/20 hearing. Having performed with famed tenors Luciano Pavarotti and Andrea Bocelli, John has worked with Mozart Festival Texas, Mid Texas Symphony Nevada Chamber Symphony, Shreveport Symphony, Abilene Philharmonic, and Wichita Symphony Orchestra.
