This is my classical composition band page. Hopefully I'll keep this up to date with new and fresh compositions. Some of these compositions are realized through Finale 2010. Now I have a few more live recordings up here from various dates! If you would like a score, please let me know and we can arrange something!

Lyrics
I dreaded that first Robin, so, But He is mastered, now, I'm accustomed to Him grown, He hurts a little, though -- I thought If I could only live Till that first Shout got by -- Not all Pianos in the Woods Had power to mangle me -- I dared not meet the Daffodils -- For fear their Yellow Gown Would pierce me with a fashion So foreign to my own -- I wished the Grass would hurry -- So -- when 'twas time to see -- He'd be too tall, the tallest one Could stretch -- to look at me -- I could not bear the Bees should come, I wished they'd stay away In those dim countries where they go, What word had they, for me? They're here, though; not a creature failed -- No Blossom stayed away In gentle deference to me -- The Queen of Calvary -- Each one salutes me, as he goes, And I, my childish Plumes, Lift, in bereaved acknowledgment Of their unthinking Drums --
