Cloud Pieces Score

It was suggested that I write up the score of a string quartet that I composed a few months ago and I thought I'd post it on my blog.  You can download it from Google Drive here.
The recording is actually a quintet with a double bass but for the sake of the score I rearranged some of the melodic material and pared it down to four instruments.

Orchestration Course update

The orchestration course has been wonderful and we are wrapping it up with week 12.  The last four weeks we have been working on our final project and I will be handing that in tomorrow.

This is a piece I composed for an exercise a couple weeks ago.  We were given some drum loops and were told to craft an orchestration around them.


Book Group/Film Class



I am leading a book discussion group at the library this year.  We will be discussing The Rithmatist and then making a short film about the book.
The last film class I taught was a lot of fun so I'm looking forward to doing another!
I am rather proud of this poster.  Simple yet intriguing.
