The New Century

Eventide

Fated Nines - Jason Eckardt (Amorsima Trio)

A dissonant but lyrical work for alto saxophone and piano. Commissioned by and dedicated to Hailey Myers.

Notturno for alto sax and piano - Minchew

Commissioned by CSUF new music ensemble in 2022, this graphic musical score was created as an expression of place and a means to bridge a gap, allowing anyone to potentially realize the score, no traditional note-reading required. 

I found this particular leaf on one of my regular hiking trails, an old revolutionary war era road near where Benedict Arnold plotted with Captain Andre of the British military forces. The Lenape people called this area their home at that time and they had likely made the road before any of us appeared. 

The performers for this performance are the WP New Music Ensemble (Cedar Ellis, Jeremy Maida, Chelsea McBride, Joseph Sabando, Isla Brownlow, Skylar Hagnar) with Payton MacDonald and Carl Patrick Bolleia, directors, and the composer on piano in concert on Dec 8, 2023.

Leaf 1: Japanese Knotweed

Music for Clarinet and Piano.  Rob Miller, Clarinet; Marian Lee, Piano.

Playoff for Clarinet and Piano

an improvisation on the state of my mind.

This electronic fixed media work was presented at the Vermont College of Fine Arts Electronic Showcase.  It is my third use of Bohlen Pierce tuning, and the first to be entirely in Bohlen Pierce.

Brain (Bohlen Pierce)

This fixed media Electronic work is my first effort in 14 EDO (14 equal divisions of the octave), a microtonal tuning.  It was presented at the Vermont College of Fine Arts Electronic Showcase.  The words are from the pre-Socratic philosopher Heraclitus of Ephesus, arguably his most famous quote.  The speaker is my wife, Carol Beatty.

Beautiful Harmony (14 EDO)

This string quartet is dedicated to Rob Reiner who gave me many enjoyable moments throughout my entire life. This work is a first installment and there will be a polymicrotonal version coming soon. This version is polytempic but is only standard tuning.  The work is in four different and mutating tempi and differing time signatures that change throughout the work. The music is in three sections, but is fused as a single piece. I may break them up into movements, but would prefer not to. The polymicrotonal version is in progress. 

String Quartet 17: Dedicated to Rob Reiner in Memoriam

Sonata for Two Flutes and Piano

I am a composer, author, editor, teacher, and technologist. My work engages the advancement of arts and technology from both humanist and experimental perspectives. I am available for commissions, master classes, writing & editing, teaching & presentations, seminars & performances, and music digital engraving.

The scores for all the notated music you hear here can be downloaded and, one hopes, performed at your leisure:
