Who can commission music?  ANYONE! An original piece of music can be created for a concert, a CD, to commemorate an event or as a personal gift.

How does it work?  Just contact me!  Budgets can be flexible and various forms of funding sources exist. Many variables, such the length, the instrumentation, and the scope and essence of the piece can affect its cost. Consortium commissioning enables each patron/ensemble with credit for commissioning the work while providing a wider range of audience performances. 

Commissioning Music: A Basic Guide,  https://www.newmusicusa.org/about/resources/ is downloadable from New Music USA.

I’ve been commissioned by individuals, performing ensembles and even a State Park!  Collaborating on a common vision for a piece is one of my favorite aspects of composing! Consortiums make it easy!

By nature, I’m an Explorer and that innate curiousity infuses everything I do, including composing and working with arts organizations and communities. I’m available for bookings for workshops presentations, residencies,  and music curation.

Workshops include: educational and compositional practices, composing for flex instrumentation, presentations include: “How Music Act as an Advocate“, “How Composers Create Music from Parks and Wilderness”, “How Composers Create Music from Art and Architecture”, and more.

As a cultural catalyst, I work as a researcher and creator in multiple capacities. at the intersection of Music, Art, People and Place. Through this lens, I provide guidance to arts organizations and communities for visioning, planning, creative placemaking, programming, and audience (visitor) experience.
