The premiere of my piece "7 O'Clock Skyline" for seven percussionists. Dedicated to Dr. Kenneth Piascik and the New Jersey Youth Symphony Percussion Ensemble. Recorded June 11, 2017.

7 O'Clock Skyline - Live

The Act II opening song of Zachary Catron's new musical "The Battle, Not the War" currently being developed at The New School, NYC.

"The Battle, Not the War" is about gay men and women in the US Army during World War II: how they survived, and in some cases, thrived, despite living and working within a vehemently anti-homosexual organization. Based on the accounts of real soldiers and declassified government documents, "The Battle, Not the War" tells the story of Michael Miller, Charlie Hughes, Robert Mann, Evelyn May, and Mary Smith. These composite characters represent dozens of people across the US Army and Women's Army Auxiliary Corps (W.A.A.C.) and their experiences.

This recording was done at Mannes School of Music, The New School.
