Hello, and many thanks for taking the time to visit my website.
Here are some things that I am working on right now.
5 transformations, is a full-length postmodern oratorio. The world premiere was to be performed in Vancouver in collaboration with the David Suzuki Foundation to celebrate their thirty-year anniversary however like all performances the piece has been postponed. The project is now under the umbrella of the William Bruce Society and moving forward to concerts in September 2021.
5 transformations is made possible by a generous gift from Haida artist, poet, singer, and dancer, Robert Davidson, and a grant from the Music Division of the Canada Council.
Choral Evolution is a brand new Arts Organization that I and five singers have created. The twenty five of us will be performing concerts in Sooke and The West Shore in late January 2021.
The Plague Diaries is a new music/theatre composition funded by the music division of The Canada Council. The work is inspired by Shakespeare’s isolation periods in London during the Plague outbreaks. The piece is coming along.
Tale Of A Whale is a beautiful documentary film about a community coming together to create a new school. I have written the score for this film. I’ll keep you posted about its release.
Late To The Party is an album that Ted Ritchie and I are writing. We are worrying away at the recordings. two of the songs, as demos, ar on the page Forevermore.
