John Mark Sherlock studied composition at the University of Western Ontario with Jack Behrens, Arsenio
Girón and David Myska.
Sherlock’s work is remarkable for it’s use of electric keyboards and organ dating form the ’60s
and ’70s. He is likely unique in his extensive use of Rhodes and Wurlitzer electric pianos, Hohner
Clavinet/Pianet and Hammond organ in ensemble and via his abstract aesthetic.
