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.

Viola Sonata Performances

     When I was 45 years old I made a conscious goal that my music would be played at least 50 miles from home by someone not related to me. And lo and behold, that goal has become reality! Sally Wituszynski performs my viola sonata at Marc O'Connor's string camp which you can read about here.  To get ready for that performance, Sally and I played it at a wonderful festival to celebrate the shaker tune Simple Gifts held at the Alfred Shaker Museum in Alfred, Maine. That wasn't quite 50 miles from home, but almost. I'm so glad to reach my goal--Thank you Sally!

If you're so inclined, you can listen to my viola sonata on You-tube!
