Overture for the Finicky Overture for the Finicky
A client wanted a short piece written for full orchestra in the style of JW. A mock-up was due the next day. Got it done on time but the client changed his mind and wanted "something Latin." Tears were not an option.

Club Kureya Club Kureya
Genre? Who knows? I wrote a tune for a commercial after taking a lesson from a protege of Clare Fischer. I've often wondered what would a dance piece sound like if Clare Fischer wrote it. This is the closest I could come to it.

Magic Woman Magic Woman
This tune was supposed to be for a cosmetic company video. They wanted "something sweet and innocent sounding." This was rejected because it was "too sweet." Ad guys! They're also why I don't write scores until the MIDI mock-ups are approved.

Larissa Larissa
I wrote this for a video project, but the real inspiration was a picture a friend sent me from Almaty, Kazakhstan where she and her family went on an outing in the country. A fine recorder player, Victor Eijkhout, played solo on this.

Whidbey Island Whidbey Island
The Port of Seattle Tourism Office invited a group of media people from Osaka to go to Seattle to create PR materials. I composed this piece as a score for a film a cinematographer made of Whidbey Island, a truly beautiful place.
