The record

Performances

Ten works performed live. Some carry a date and a venue. Some are documented only by the recording, which is still a performance.

With a date and a venue

Scrooge's Last Dream. Las Vegas Brass Band, two performances, December 2023. A programmatic work for brass band in five sections, following Ebenezer Scrooge through one night.

Fanfare for Uncommon Brass. Las Vegas British Brass Band, 12 March 2023, Clark County Library Theatre, Las Vegas.

Eternal Autumn. Nextet New Music Ensemble, 28 April 2021, virtual concert, University of Nevada, Las Vegas. There is also a recording on my channel with Finn Caoile at the piano.

On video, date not recorded

Hornettes Nest. An E-flat horn duet with British brass band. Christin Schlicker and Tony Hussey, horns, conducted by the composer. Clark County Library Theatre, Las Vegas.

A Medieval Fantasy. Tuba and euphonium choir, performed live in 2002. The earliest work in the catalogue.

Performed live and released on record

The Beast of Gevaudan, 2003, is a live album. Every piece on it was played in front of people and recorded that way. I didn't keep the dates or the venues, so what follows is the performance record as the recording preserves it.

Pavor Nocturnus, for brass choir. Distributed as Pavor Nocturnus (Live).

The Beast of Gevaudan, movements I to III.

Cerridwen's Cauldron.

La Llorona, movements I to III.

Overblown, movements I to V.

Commissions

Samsara, for orchestra and trumpet. Commissioned for the Las Vegas Centennial Celebration, 2006.

October for Strings, for string orchestra. Commissioned by Charles Jackson for the Silverado Chamber Ensemble, 2004.

Playing

I played euphonium and baritone in the Las Vegas British Brass Band. I don't play with them any more. They perform the music instead, which is the better arrangement for both of us.

Programming these works
