Three New Pieces for Cello, Piano, Guitar and Flute

This summer was very productive for me; the results being a big piece for cello and piano, a solo guitar piece written for the fabulous Philippe Bertaud, and a piece for flute and guitar.

Undertow, is my new piece for cello and piano. It's got a monstrous bluesy beginning which pushes the piece into alternating hyper-rhythmic sections with impressionistic/romantic sections. The score and parts are finished and available for download.

My new solo guitar piece is probably one of the most harmonically beautiful pieces I've written, using an approach which tries to combine modern chromatic Radiohead-ish harmonies with Baroque and my usual modal harmonies. The score is still being tweaked a bit for playability.

The Minotaur's Dream - Synthesized Realization

My new piece for flute and guitar continues the musical impressionism and harmonic lushness of the previous two pieces. It's called Sombras y Luces de La Selva for Flute and Guitar. The score and parts are finished and available for download.

Currently I'm working on a set of nocturnes for piano. They're going to combine the approaches I've been working with harmonically and impressionistically, while maintaining, at times, my high energy output.

Undertow - love the alternation between the sections. Live will be something intense. Apt title too

Just listened to Undertow(with Score).Really enjoyed it.I like the lyrical romantic slant your music is taking on of late,while maintaining your Polyphonic-Rhythmic- Blues roots.Hearing those roots with that Darkly Lilting 12/8 brought to mind another nether world-shadowdy romantic work i love:the opening mvt of Prokofiev's 2nd Piano Concerto.Will check out the other two new items as well.Congrads.T.
