Hello Fans and Friends,

I am creating this web site to provide a home for my music. I will gradually put all of the music that I have recorded or composed on this website. Meanwhile I will be working on a new full-featured website that will replace this single-page temporary version. Please stay tuned....

Now is the time to change the music...

20th-century music
21st-century music
Nero Fiddles While Rome Burns

My goal is twofold: 1) Provide a way for my music to be available, and 2) Promote great music, both new and old from all times and cultures, to help transform our musical culture. Planetary healing MUST begin with the healing of the music.

In the list below you will find both music scores and recordings of my music. The recordings are available from various websites and can be easily downloaded. For iTunes users, my music is available in all of these countries: Australia, Austria, Belgium, Canada, Denmark, Finland, France, Greece, Ireland, Italy, Luxembourg, Netherlands, New Zealand, Norway, Spain, Sweden, Switzerland, USA and the UK.
