Gallery

The 3 colored sections contain
pages of individual pieces,
Roman numerals divide them into
small separate groups of similar flavors.

The pages are also set up
to play like an album (easier to browse)
with a few seconds between each piece
and fade-outs at their very ends.

When you hear what you like/need,
simply click on 'Download Pieces'
for your full version of the music
for your class (or choreography).

The Meadow

The music of 'The Meadow'
was originally to be
for a new full length ballet
using the story from a
Northern European folk tale.
The pieces are written in the Classical/Romantic vein
of the 17th/18th Century.

In the end,
a contract was not settled
and the project was canceled.
I took a 3 week break from the
music and when I returned
images of 'The Meadow'
started to appear.
These became
“An Uncle's Story”.

Each of these beautiful cuts
of musical imagery can stand
on their own individually.
- for those choreographers who
wish to pick one and create
in the Classical/Romantic eras.

Be sure to click on the birds;
(from) the small red ball
on that page.

*NOTE: these 18 pieces were
recorded as a demo
[electric keyboard (Casio)
with a string sound].

Under 'Pianist's Corner' on this page
is the full hand-written score
for Orchestra.
