I was a musician before starting a career in libraries, and I still show occasional signs of activity as a composer. I am gradually adding my catalog here as I complete new works and convert older pieces over to digital formats.
Works in Progress
These are works in progress. Most are within a couple weeks or months of being complete, so if you see something that appeals, let me know, and I’ll put on a pot of coffee.

Works Completed, Whereabouts Unknown
During the late 90s and into the oughts, in Tacoma, Bloomington, and New York, there were a variety of happenings, commissions, and experiments, to some degree musical. If you were involved in any of those and are looking for scores, recordings, or other evidence, I say with mingled regret and relief that there’s very little. I’d be glad to reminisce, though.
