This album was conceived to feature a selection of my piano compositions and performances. Pieces composed over a twenty-five year period were carefully chosen for this album based on the most serious intensity of personal musical statements. Complete printed scores for all of the compositions on this album are available from the composer.

Please visit the Composer's Notes Page, where you can read details about each composition.

"The piano...is played with convincingly solid technique. His ideas are pointedly imaginative"
--Titus Levi; Keyboard Magazine (Oct.1996)
