During the last ten years I have had over fifty performances of my music. My compositions have been played by groups such as the New York New Music Ensemble, the Crosstown Trio and the Radnofsky Quartet. Recently, pianist Shen Wen performed my Sonata no.6; movement 3 at the Saint Louis Ethical Society and at Brentwood Congregational Church. In 2005 I enjoyed writing for three commissions, most notably pianist Sergey Schepkin premiered my “Orange” Variations commissioned by and for the Bank of America Celebrity Series. My music is frequently performed at church including anthems, arrangements and solo organ music.
