"Vertical Acceleration" paints a musical portrait of a journey through the cosmos – from ignition to take-off to gliding through space outside the bounds of earth's gravity. Ever growing as the spaceship begins its return to earth, the music becomes faster and more rhythmic, incorporating a 7/8 meter. It culminates in an uplifting, powerful and emotional conclusion as the bold astronauts conclude their voyage.

A spooky, Halloweenish tune where everyone gets a turn at the melody and the percussion section gets to play some “surprise” instruments, like the flexatone and vibraslap.

Written for the East Aurora High School Wind Ensemble (IL), "Shine On!" was inspired by the goddess Aurora. She was bringer of the early light and often described as bringing hope & rejuvenation to all living mortal beings as they woke up in the morning, filled with energy and ready to resume their work and journey in life. Her two horses that pulled her chariot across the sky are named in the Odyssey as Firebright and Daybright.

"Tent Meeting Revival" is an extended character piece in which the soloist takes the part of the preacher cajoling, leading and exhorting the faithful through hallelujahs, prayers, and enthusiastic devotion during an old-fashioned gospel tent meeting. The piece leads to an “all’s well” Hallelujah windup finale.

"In un gioco di specchi" is a concert band piece awaiting its first performance. Built on small musical cells that repeat and transform endlessly, the work creates a shifting architecture of sound—like reflections that never settle, always refracted into new shapes. It is both playful and elusive: a score that invites performers to explore the tension between recurrence and metamorphosis, between the familiar and the unexpected. The piece is not just written; it is waiting to be discovered in sound.
