The first Prelude from my ongoing 'Preludes (for piano)' suite [2021-] , which uses serial techniques. The four transformations of the set complex are complemented by the additional use of free melodic inversion. I have dedicated the piece to my former composition teacher,

 Recorded 11-23-2025. "Hey Diddy Ho (and tra-la-la!)" begins with a brisk, Allegretto theme followed by a broader middle section and then returning to the Allegretto.  This overall A-B-A structure is also echoed in the middle "B" section  which starts with a descending theme ("C") followed by a melodic ascending theme ("D") and then returning to the descending "C" theme before returning to the original Allegretto A-B-A.  This classical structure informs the overall style of the piece.

I have studied composition privately with Jaemus Downing, Philip Rayner, and Peter Nickol, although I am largely self-taught.
