I’m going on tour with Gene Pritsker for a series of concerts of our music plus music by Joseph Waters and Amy Wurtz.  All of the pieces have electronics and video.

We’ll be in New York at Westbeth Arts Center on February 13 and then the CheckOut in Chicago on February 20th and then at San Diego State University on February 22nd.

Going to be a fun tour!

My piece Meditation will be performed as part of ACM’s program Meditative Mondays on Monday, January 12 at 6:00 at the All Saints Episcopal Church at 4550 N. Hermitage Ave. in Chicago.

The cellist is Alyson Berger and the rest of the program is stellar.

My new piece for saxophone quartet, electric guitar, acoustic bass and cajón will be premiered in Manhattan on January 26th at 7:00 PM as part of a concert by Composers Concordance.

My new piece for alto sax and piano, Breathless, will be performed tonight by Jai Jeffries and Todd Rewoldt at Steel Wig Music.  It’s an album release party for On the Verge now out on Composers Concordance Records.

I’ve been inducted into the Newcity Magazine Music 45 Hall of Fame!  Woo-hoo!

I am overwhelmed by this incredible honor.  Check out the whole list here.

The CheckOut is finally opening!  After more than two years of dreaming of this moment, it is finally real.  We’re celebrating the opening with a very ambitious festival and tonight is opening night!

Tonight’s concert features the Amos Gillespie Quartet performing music ACM commissioned inspired by the Uptown neighborhood. I wrote a new piece called My Uptown in three movements and I can’t wait to hear this wonderful ensemble perform it.

I have lived and worked in Uptown for many years and this piece is highly personal for me.
