What I'm currently working on and what I'm thinking about

Five Miniatures for Woodwind Quintet

3 of the 5 movements are now complete: Written 'C,' Waves Low & Slow, and Funk. I hope to finish the other two movements by mid-March: Lachrimosa, and Spitting Distance. Shoot me a note if you're interested in premiering.

Solo Voice and Instrument

I have a new crop of poems that are ripe to be set. Something in the vein of my 'Two Poems for Male Voice and Bassoon.' Contact me if you'd like to collaborate.

Think alla Maxwell Davies' 'Mad King,' Ligeti's 'Le Grande Macabre,' and Berio's 'Folk Songs.'

MoDul(s)

Sketching the first of many MoDul(s), groove based-orchestral compositions. I'll be writing a number of MoDul(s) that can be performed as stand alones, or arranged in multi-movement works by the performing organization.

I've been inspired how the composer and pianist, Nik Bärtsch, writes and organizes his music. I've also been inspired by and have been studying recent works by Michael Torke.

Hip Knot

My work for large wind ensemble was premiered this past February. I'll have a streaming score video available for perusal soon.

Illegitimate Dance

I wrote a work for clarinet and piano during my undergrad called, embarrassingly, 'The Illegitimate Dance.' It's also been arranged and performed on alto saxophone.

I think the work could use an update and major revision. Potentially serve as fodder for a concerto.

Send me a note if you're interested.

I will initiate planning for a new dramatic work in late 2025. No subject matter or form is chosen yet. Looking for collaborators in dance, theatre, literature, and venues to help develop ideas.
