Today is the world premiere of "Pictures of the Floating World" for sax quartet and percussion quartet here in Fort Collins.  I am honored to have this being performed by not one, but two outstanding ensembles: the Oasis Quartet and the Vasanta Percussion Quartet.  This is part of the 2nd biennial Aries Composers Festival here at Colorado State University.  Hope to see you there!

Here's a beautiful multi-camera video of the premiere of "Garden of the Gods" performed by Joe Alessi and the Columbus State trombone choir under Dr. Brad Palmer.

Check out this nice three-camera video of my work Lascaux for orchestra.  It's a really stellar performance and thanks again to Maestro Kenney!

"Kubla Khan" my recent work for chorus and percussion just received a wonderful premiere performance by the CSU Choirs and Percussion Ensemble under the baton of Dr. James Kim.  You can watch the complete performance on YouTube below.

I am honored to have the University of Florida Percussion Ensemble under the direction of Dr. Ken Broadway performing "L'oiseau dans l'espace" with Don-Paul Kahl as soloist. Wish I could be there!

I am deeply honored to have Joseph Alessi accompanied by Dr. Bradley Palmer and his students performing the world premiere of "Garden of the Gods: Concerto for Trombone and Trombone Choir."  The work will be presented along with a masterclass by Mr. Alessi at 11:00 AM at the RiverCenter for the Performing Arts in Columbus, GA.

The University of Alabama Symphonic Band will present the Southeast regional premiere November 12 of "AUTO '66: Concerto for Clarinet" with Dr. Osiris Molina, soloist and Dr. Randall Coleman, conductor.  Here's their super cool poster and a link to the excellent UA Bands website.

Here's a nice synopsis of ISSAC and a great quote from competition winner Zach Shemon about "L'oiseau." Congratulations again to Amy Griffiths, Paul Vaillancourt, and all the wonderful competitors!

Jeff Siegfried from Northwestern University was kind enough to allow me to post his performance from ISSAC.  Check it out here!
