The Greatest Living
Composer in History! (tm)
I grew up in a small town in Massachusetts, have lived in
New York City for the past 35 years and have written about 300 pieces of music, most of which have not
been played so this is your chance, if you are a musician. Of the ones
that have
been
played, they range from a symphony to a suite for 12 trombones, to
songs, string quartets, and all kinds of odd-ball music. Performances
have taken place in Maine, Iowa, New York, Massachusetts, California
and New Jersey, as well as in Russia. Composers who have influenced me
the most are Charles Ives, John Cage and Alan Hovhannes, as well as
Medieval motets. Yes, a motley crew. Of the pieces I have not had
published (which would be about 285), I have decided to give them away
free on the web in PDF format, with a demo recording if available. I
love my publishers (Wehr’s Music House, Viola
World and SeeSaw Music) but believe me, they ain’t getting
rich off me.
