COMPOSITION CATALOG GUIDED TOUR
ABOUT MY MUSIC CATALOG…
I’ve worked to make this online catalog a complete resource, both for musicians interested in performing my music and for listeners interested in exploring and hearing it. There are nearly 100 concert works, with scores, piece info, program notes, and recordings or videos.
My music embraces a wide spectrum of styles. Early works are steeped in 19th century Romanticism. Graduate study in Boston plunged me into atonality and 20th century techniques. I soon began a journey to fuse the wider 20th century vocabulary back to tonality, forging a personal unified language. Returning to Los Angeles, I gradually added dimensions of identity to this fusion, both as an American and a Jew. Currently, I’m combining my music contrapuntally with other media—visual art, film, and computers—all to create meaning and emotional experiences that speak to our Post Modern era.
