Mysterious Rose

This piece, found on my album The Art of Play: Album for the Young was written for a student of mine named Rose who passed away in the spring of 2011. She started learning piano in her 90s and is a testament for all that you are never too old to play!

About the Music

All of the musical works on this page are compositions that I have finished or nearly finished writing. Some of my compositions are fully notated and intended to be played exactly as written, and others play with improvisational ideas in places to varying degrees. My works are not only a refelction of my musical ideas, but also my ideas about the natural world and music's role in or refelction of the natural world.
