Part II of the Chronicles A newer piece, here performed by PrimeraJazz. Dedicated to my wonderful wife, Lauren.
Messengers and Providers In December of 2006 I gave a recital to showcase new material I had written for small jazz ensemble. This piece is something of a tribute to Art Blakey and the Jazz Messengers.
Elegy Elegy is a chamber jazz piece for horns, string quartet, and percussion. Also premiered at my senior recital.
Reach Me Reach Me is a dramatic song cycle for soprano, tenor, and piano with text by Katherine Lloyd. I had the pleasure of working with my talented friends Patrick Massey, Rachel FitzSimons, and Katie Cole who premiered the work at Patrick's recital in April 2008.
Last Cigarette From Puppets and Shadows (book and lyrics by Dana Dobreva). This version of Last Cigarette was performed by Louise Brock at my senior recital, backed by a jazz trio and string quartet.
Chapter 2 I haven't finished an electronica track in quite awhile. Here is a new one, also penned for Lauren, much in the tradition of Sigur Rós and The Album Leaf.
Blinds This is a single off of Full of Stars' self-titled debut album. I am responsible for the drum programming, the virtual string orchestration, the mix: everything that isn't Jeff Fowler's lovely vocals and guitar.
