My original composition, Harvest Rondo, over footage of US Hwy 12 coming into Lewiston, ID.

So, in case you didn't know, I compose things for other instruments and orchestral pieces. This particular piece is the second movement in a piano sonata I've been working on since the first of the year. This movement is my expression of the sorrow and torment associated with my struggles with depression. Honestly, this bit of music is what has kept me breathing this year. I decided to edit together a video using my phone, I hope you enjoy!

This is the first two minutes of a piece I've written for my wife of 14 years. Life can be tough, dark, and chaotic, but there's still beauty and serenity within the storm.

This is an adaptation of the intro section to Hotel California by The Eagles performed on classical guitar.

This is me playing an original piece of mine, Melody's Etude. I wrote this to focus on scalar runs of shifting modes. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I enjoyed playing this one. If you're interested in learning this piece I will be posting sheet music soon available for free.
