Banyan premiere and recording
In June the intrepid Chicago Composers Orchestra performed Banyan, and they sent a recording!
Now or Never Recording
All I can think to say about 2011 so far is whoa. More on that later! The good people from Roulette sent the recordings from my November performance, and I have whipped together a mix of Now or Never for your listening pleasure. It’s going to snow! Again. Buy milk! Buy bread! Buy toilet paper!!...
Mint Conditioner Recording
First of all, last week’s concert at Roulette was, to quote an enthusiastic listener, “absolutely bloody amazing!” Seriously. All of the musicians gave 150%, and I think the choice to follow three pieces for solo instrument and electronics with an acoustic ensemble work provided just the right sort of juxtaposition, or….palette-cleansing? Particularly notable was Logan...
Two by Eight Recording
A special treat just arrived in my email inbox! A recording of Two by Eight from my friends Compagnie CH.AU (I assure you I have no idea how to pronounce the name either), from a June performance in Vevey, Switzerland. You can listen to it here. They pretty much nailed the whole “Quirky gypsy wedding...

I am excited to be...
New recording – “Bloom”
Hi Everyone! It’s nice to be finished with another round of Composer Lockdown and out in the sunlight! I’ve just posted the recording of Bloom that Joshua and I made in the recording studio last month. We had so much fun. Enjoy!
New Electric Blue Pantsuit Recording
A quickie post to let you know about a new studio recording of electric blue pantsuit, which you can listen to here. Jennifer Choi and I recorded it last spring at Threshold Music. An even more sparkly version will be released on Jennifer’s solo CD soon! Here is a photo of us performing it last...
Hair, Heat, Radio Music
There really aren’t enough good things to say about a hairdresser who truly understands one’s cowlick situation. Mine also happens to be an up-and-coming DJ and producer! August! To be honest, I’m not really a fan. Hot, sticky, even thoughts seem a bit stuck in the air… I find myself just waiting for September to...
New Recordings Online
Hi! Another quick note to say that there are some new recordings posted… for those of you who haven’t found it yet, you can hear The Way of Ideas here (and here as well), and Mythimna Twilight is here. Many thanks to Flawn Williams (who does not have a web site, but hopefully will soon!)...
