In quiet and still moments, a muse visits and encourages my composition practice. Please contact me if you are interested in any of these works:

SATB

Three Dove Songs

  1. I Had a Dove (SSATBB) - Please note the midi file cannot accurately recreate the “nature sounds” notated in the score, using breath, rubbing hands in circles, or rhythmic, but unpitched “ch” and “ts” sounds. I have edited those sections out of the demo file shared above.

  2. Two Doves on a Selfsame Branch (SATB, with SSAATTBB quasi-canon)

  3. Wood Dove (SSA)

    Poetry is by John Keats, Christina Rossetti, and Hilda Conkling.

Token of a Covenant (SATB)

Text is taken from the poetry of Felicia Hemans.

Dedicated to the Choir and Congregation of Holy Trinity Lutheran Church in New York City, a Reconciling in Christ (RIC) congregation since 1999, welcoming all persons in Christ’s name regardless of sexual orientation, race, ethnic origin, gender, class, or other possible exclusionary distinctions.
