SHARING
A PRAYER: The selections on this page are rough sketches performed and produced crudely in an effort to get the musical concept into a form that could be understood by others. This music is conceived from a spiritual point of view without any commercial intent. I think of them as little prayers for all to share in. I invite improvising musicians who enjoy this music, to play it and record it. I would love to hear this music performed and produced by others who have the resources and skills beyond my own. |

SKETCHES
VOL 1: These are some of my favorite personal sketches from the past 10 years that I wanted to share. They are all simple melodic ideas wrapped in rhythmic and harmonic environments that I find interesting. All the music was composed using a process I call 'layered improvisation" where each part is recorded one by one while improvising over the previous parts. Editing is limited to expanding short improvised rhythm sequences into final arrangements prior to the melodic parts. |
