Pull Myself Together

I was digging through my files and I found this that I had forgotten about.

Gift

As I wrote this piece I intended it to be a representation of my state as I was writing the piece itself but as I continued on I began reflecting on the Creator who made beings that create - even furthermore a Creator who created beings who create pieces that are molded and formed by the state in which they leave their creator while undergoing the creative process as it comes into existence.

I Need You

Spilled Orange for Orchestra

Well is a serene, yet challenging, composition for alto saxophone and piano. It features interplay between the instruments, interesting modulations, and beautiful melodies.

Well is an arrangement of the hymn tune It Is Well, commissioned by Vanessa Woolsey. Vanessa is a senior Saxophone Performance Major at the University of Nebraska – Lincoln. The piece begins with a simple texture of melody in the saxophone and block chord accompaniment in the piano, creating a serene atmosphere. After growing turmoil that is intensified by chromaticism and dialogue between the instruments, the piece eventually finds contentment again with a call and response between the piano and the saxophone declaring It Is Well With My Soul.
