Bachianas Bachianas
A piano piece I wrote inspired by Bach. It was submitted to a film company to be used in a horror film. It should be played on a harpsichord!

Fugue in D minor Fugue in D minor
This is the fugue that accompanies the Bachianas Prelude. I prefer them both to be played on the harpsichord.

Psyche Psyche
Written for solo, unaccompanied, euphonium. Entered into the Lieksa Brass Week composition competition in Finland. It is based on a scale with a period of two octaves.

Layers and Palindrome Layers and Palindrome
This piece is for solo unaccompanied oboe to be played in a very live room with reflections galore. It is based entirely on the first 4 measures, which get transposed and reversed each time the rhythm changes.


Metamorphoses mvt. 1 Metamorphoses mvt. 1
String Quintet no. 1, movement 1. More to follow. This piece was premiered at the Pacific Northwest Composers Project. I will be having it played again soon and getting a good recording of it, but for now this will have to do.

Metamorphoses mvt. 2 Metamorphoses mvt. 2
2nd movement to my piece for a string quintet.
