Composer of chamber music, fly fisher, life-long Mets fan, proud grandpa.
Here's my latest composition. Perfect as a theme for any video or audio broadcast seeking to evoke a sense of classic love, bittersweet reminiscence, or a timeless, cinematic romance.

The Ventures meet zydeco. This is a variation on an old British drinking tune, “To Anacreon in Heaven,” the same melody used for perhaps the most familiar song in America. It features electric guitar, electric bass, accordion and a drum kit. It is upbeat, up-tempo theme and will lift your spirits!

This piece has a central melody that is introduced and then intricately woven against itself as other instruments. This creates a captivating, layered texture and the listener is left with an ethereal impression of a single memory viewed through different emotional lenses and at varying speeds.

My latest composition is gracefully melancholic yet light, capturing the essence of love remembered, the romance of old-world travel, or the tender ache of a bittersweet story. Hear it here: music.youtube.com/watch?v=C2bv... or on any streaming service.

My latest composition. This piece features woodwinds and a choir that create a hallowed sound at times ethereal and strangely dissonant at others. As the world around us changes rapidly perhaps it is because heaven above is also changing.

Just released, this piece for brass quintet is based on the “Magnolia” chord progression (Bb - Bb7 - Eb - Ebm) and is at times mellow and others, jaunty. Sam & Jaz are my brass-playing grandchildren! You can listen here: music.youtube.com/watch?v=lZh1...
