Dialogue from Sailmaker Beach
Recently composed, I've truncated to just on 6 minutes.
It's an impressionist piece (fairly tonal but modern). The story is about a male and female out in a desert region late in the afternoon, gradually admitting a fondness for each other.

Interludes
I have been away, and not reading my forums, so I didn't know that this one had disappeared, however briefly. I've been doing some reconnecting and rejoined yesterday. I thought I would post something for you. I recently completed my fourth symphony,

It looks like I'm back in business now the VSL problem has been sorted out. Working on a new orchestral piece.
Meanwhile I don't think I submitted this piece. I was thinking of extending it to back a clip of a garden of fountains with the usual terra

I haven’t been in for a while, initially having to do a revision/update course for work (a boring month if ever). Now VSL has broken down for no apparent reason and I’m still getting help. Lucky my income isn’t relying on it.
“Peggy’s Garden” is o

Chorus for piano version and orchestra version
Hi, for the first time I work on a choir piece, based on a most melodic Beethoven cantata fragment - a version for choir and piano (the first 45 seconds and interlude at 1:22 - 45 by Beethoven) and a version with orchestra - what do you think? Are t

This week I did an arrangement of my Fugue in A for brass quintet, because I've always had a brass sound in mind when I first wrote it.
The music has been transposed to Bb in order to better suit brass instruments, and having 5 instruments to score fo

Symphony No. 1 in C Minor, Op. 2b (Sinfonia Solenne)
This work was begun in 2020 at the start of the COVID-19 pandemic. Initially it was to be an exercise in fugue writing, but I soon became captivated by the expressiveness of the counterpoint and shaped it into a long, one-movement polyphonic fantasia

I recently finished this pseudo-Baroque orchestral suite. I think the results are mixed, but I'd be interested to hear anyone's thoughts. It's a bit, long, but I'd welcome comments on any of the movements. Thanks!

I've been working on a 31-tone piece based on the idea of interplay between some dorianish scales taken from here, so I'm looking for your thoughts (and shamelessly hoping to encourage some of you to play with exotic scales and temperaments, I think
