These past months have been filled with nature, quality time with family and friends, and COMPOSING! In the coming year, you’ll get to hear the fruits of my labor given voice through:
Seattle Bach Choir (WA), Daniel A. Mahraun, director. Celebrating the 40th anniversary of the choir with a new setting of the ‘Credo’ with a text by Martin Luther for SATB and organ accompaniment.
Women’s Voices Chorus (NC), Laura Justus Sam, director. Commissioned to be part of their spring concert theme of ‘home and away’ this piece promises to spark joy and challenge this amazing community of singers.
Red Wing High School Choir (MN), Scott Perau, director. A new a cappella piece for graduation with lyrics based on input directly from choir students.
Commissions are how composers like me make their living, and I’m grateful for the artistic leadership of each of these ensembles for engaging me in this way. If you’re interested in commissioning me to write a piece tailor-made for your ensemble, please reach out!
