An atmospheric piece.  A way marker on my continuing evolution as a musician.  This was a whole heap of fun.....glad that it is over though.

Conflict

A serial piece that tells the story of a madman....the voices represent the different elements of the serial killer's psyche.  This was performed as part of New Music Week, Waterford 2015.  I am delighted to have received some great reviews and thank the performers for their part in making it all happen.

Portfolio Serial Killer

Submission for third year portfolio - quartal harmony

Portfolio Quarter Past Nine

Third year portfolio submission as a free composition.  The piece revolves around pentatonic scales.  The scales have been selected by adhering to an anti-clockwise revolution on the circle of fifths, and for the most part, each instrument plays a single not (in various registers).

The Point of My Existence

Final semester percussion piece - conflicting time signatures - repetition vs palindromes - Indian raga inspired rhythms

Accountability Live

A contemporary piece for piano and prepared piano - inspired by the poetry of Charles Baudelaire.  These are my flowers of evil.  Three flowers reflected in plaindromes, with petals of 6 petals of 6 semitones!
