I spent over three decades composing music for opera, theatre, concerts, and film. My music has been performed throughout the United States, and my opera, Life in Death, was performed at the Kennedy Center’s Millennium Stage and the D.C. Fringe Festival. I have scored more than 40 theatrical productions and radio broadcasts (including Foley and sound design). While my focus has shifted more toward writing and research, music and sound creation laid the foundation for all of my writing, teaching, and research.
