Selected List of WORKS

Note: I hope to have the ability for visitors to the site to download mp3 audio samples and purchase unpublished scores in the future. For now, if you’d like to purchase full scores/parts for anything here that isn’t available through my publishers, please CONTACT ME for more information. Audio samples for quite a few of the big band tunes can be found on both my MYSPACE site and over at Walrus Music. The BUG page on CD Baby has 2 minute samples of each track from the new disc, and you can also preview the album through iTunes.
