After I wrote "The Search", I was asked by an associate to write a couple more pieces for the same instrumentation.  The result was a set with 3 pieces: "The Search", "The Sighting", "The Encounter".  There's no program behind the works, so let your imagination run wild.

The Encounter

I compose mostly neoclassical and neoromantic chamber works. Sheet music is available for all pieces, and I do accept commissions! I love to collaborate. Private message me for details.

A NOTE TO OTHER COMPOSERS: I am very sympathetic to other users who don't have expensive sound libraries. If you want me to listen to something and critique it on something other than the sound library, just ask.

I'm a Canadian composer who's interested in writing just about anything!  I started writing when I was eight, and am still going strong (well, I'm trying at least!).  A few of my pieces have been performed internationally, and several have been recorded, but I'm always hoping for more.  I'd love to hear from you!  Thanks for listening!

Most of my music is available through Lighthouse Music Publications (www.lighthousemusicpublications.com).

I'm not a composer, I'm a performer. Composers are Mozart, Beethoven, Chopin, Rachmaninoff, Zimmer.... And millions of Soundcloud users. (Bach is not a composer, he is GOD) But without performers, no one in the world would hear their works. So I like my job. :)
