It was four years ago that I wrote "From Mists to Torrents", my first short composition for orchestra.

You're invited to enjoy two minutes of beautiful music and gorgeous cinematography!

Hot off the press - "The Gathering Storm" for SATB choir with piano!

Do you know an exceptional SATB choir that could give the premiere performance?

🚨 This is inexplicable news to share. If in Alberta and you want flu and covid shots for NEXT year (2026-2027), you have only until December 15 of THIS year to order them.

This is not incompetence. It’s a deliberate choice to prevent as many people ..

Today I'm releasing "Songs from the Electronic Computer Lab (1978-9)." It features a few high-energy synth-rock extravaganzas balanced with some soft, thoughtful ballads.

This year I am also celebrating the 20th anniversary of the release of my solo album, "On Being Human".
The album was released in 2005.
Feel like celebrating with me?

I've been experimenting with biosites.com, developing a quick online bio with links to my key websites. It's formated for cell phone screens. If you'd like to have a quick look, I'm open to positive, productive feedback.

Here’s the world premiere of “Pentagonal Dance” for harp, performed by Danielle Kuntz. This is a challenging piece for an accomplished harpist. (Watch the “pedal cam” in the bottom left corner of the screen.) Kudos and many thanks to Danielle for an outstanding performance!
