About me

I am an active composer, music teacher, and organizer of music events. I share an occasional Music as Meditation concert with listeners and fellow musicians and I organize several concerts of new music each year. I use this blog to tell people about my musical endeavors and as a home for my virtual busking basket. If you want to support my musical efforts financially, please look for the donate button on the right-hand side of this page. You can find pages about The Davis Hill Studio on this blog.

I publish my music in various places around the internet. I'm always happy when my music is performed. So far, I have about 4K downloads on IMSLP. You can find a lot of my music there. You can also find it here. To receive a pdf copy of the music listed below, please e-mail me at

I publish for the love of music and for the love of music-making in community. I believe in sharing my music with interested musicians. However, I really appreciate contributions. It takes a long time to write, perform, perfect, publish, and record a piece of music.  Please consider a donation commensurate with your ability to pay and the value you place on my work. Enjoy!

Light Pastorale:  This piece started out as a pastorale meditation which fell out of the sky on Christmas Day in 2016. It's help was needed in a later Christmas Season and it grew these lyrics. I hope it will serve many groups of singers in many places. Scored for Soprano, Alto, and piano. Can be sung by two soloists or a choir of women's voices. 

Lyrics: Light come, light. Light come light. Light come out of dark night. Light comes out of the dark night. Light comes out of night and shines and shines bright on all. Light comes out of the dark, comes out into light and shines on all, and light is within us one and all. Light comes out of the dark, comes out of the night: the light that shines on all. Take my light and let it shine. Let it shine until the whole is light, all light. Let it shine until the whole is light, all light.
