Dear Reader, My work often focuses on the sonic terrain between melody and spoken work. I consider this a sub-genre. That’s why this new website is divided into three main categories: Sound Installation, radio, and music/performance, which includes composer commissions, performance, and recordings. A melody is a story and a story is a melody. Enjoy the listening samples and broadcasts!
