My Phantom Digital Orchestra lives in my computer and I am (on a good day) composer-in-residence, just a servant of the Muse...

I write symphonic, small ensemble and choral music, in multiple styles from medieval through modern classical. The music you hear on my pages is created with Finale notation software and Garritan Personal Orchestra sound samples. All pieces have a traditional score associated with them; if you are interested in any piece for possible performance, please contact me for details on scoring, instrumentation, pricing, etc. Recent Concert: I enjoy many kinds of music for listening - rock, pop, jazz, world, and classical of all periods. I am interested also in the fusion of art, poetry, dance, video, and ritual with music, music as a healing force and have been a music volunteer in the hospice setting.

Story behind the song

Jim Pellerite was formerly the pricipal flautist with the Philadelphia Orchestra. He became fascinated with the Native American Flute, and has since played that, while encouraging composers to compose for it. This is for Jim, with thanks for his patience, critique and encouragement. 

In this piece, I try to invoke a feeling of reverie and nostalgia, as well as the fleeting and varied nature of memories... several musical styles are evident in this piece, flowing together one after another, much like the flow of memories presents us with bits of the past in a similar potpourri of moods.
