It All Fades Away (Jason Robert Brown | SATB arr. by Matthew Brown)

This track is from the album Though Love Be a Day and is available for purchase on CD Baby here: http://www.cdbaby.com/cd/antiochchamberensemble1

A Red, Red Rose

City Of Thieves

This piece is the second piece of a set of Retrospections I intend to write over the course of my life. This piece's vast array of subject matter includes the events of the last few months, traditionalism, Romanticism, beauty, peace over conflict, and God's love as depicted in Isaiah 43: 1-4. It is scored as a single movement for two violas. It was performed during June 2019 at the Walden School by Victor Lowrie Tafoya and Katie Palka.

Text: Marcus 5:9
Legio nomen mihi [Our name is Legion]
Est multi sumus [For we are many]

DEMON was written and premiered on Saturday, October 15, 2015, presented to an audience of film and video game composers as a
demonstration of novel vocal techniques. My challenge to myself was to write a piece with zero specific pitches or texts; previously, I had
experimented with such techniques only within the context of more “traditional” choral pieces, such as Pacem. As the piece began to take
shape, I realized that the addition of an appropriately spine-tingling text would complement the sound world which was emerging. The
Latin included in the piece is taken from a biblical story of demon possession. Asked for a name, the response is: “Our name is Legion, for we are many.” Although this piece may be performed with smaller choirs—perhaps even as few as eight or twelve—I imagine it becoming
increasingly effective (and impactful) with greater numbers, given the techniques employed. (A Roman legion consisted of about five
thousand men at the time of the story, for what it’s worth!)

Pop, in the style of Rick Astley - Jukebox

A sonic image of March 15 - May 15, 2020 from my apartment in Brooklyn, NY during On Pause orders as a result of the COVID-19 pandemic. 
It combines sounds heard from my window each day and evening from this time period, sounds from a collaboration with choreographer Kelly Bartnik, and my own musical responses.
