About The Music On My Page
The Madcap Laughed was composed at the request of cellist Esther Rogers whose performance was recorded at the SCOR! music festival in Rochester, NY. The piece is a humble tribute to Pink Floyd founder, Syd Barret.
The Bachelor Descends uses recorded audio from numbers stations as well as an old, old recording of my grandfather singing a torch song as source material.
Wasted Youth (With Silence) is a goofy little piece written for the New England 60x60 project. The idea behind the project is to match 60 musical pieces with 60 videos; ultimately the audience participates by selecting which video/music pieces get paired. This project is part of the Vox Novus 60x60 series.
Shibuya Crossing was composed at the request of Herve Zenouda for a CD he released called Post Minimalism 4 countries 19 composers. The music consists of digitally altered electric guitars.
Gretel was composed at the request of oboist Charles Huang. This performance features Bill Solomon on vibraphone and Daren Weissfisch on oboe.

Lately I've been absorbed with some concert band pieces. Got a reading of one by a fine high school band last week. The other piece is too hard to just read. I'm shopping it out to college band director friends. On the other hand, large ensemble pieces take so much time for all the detailed score work. I'm ready to do some more work with smaller forces and hopefully a bit edgier material.
As for your pieces, send them on. johnwgoss@gmail.com is the best one to send files. I'll be watching for them.
Anyway, I did enjoy listening to your work.
