Music
In addition to being an author and a psychotherapist, I am also a composer. You’ll find original compositions of mine throughout this site. (Try using the mp3 player in the sidebar to hear a randomly selected piece at any time.) The set of compositions listed below was commissioned by the Lineage Dance Company for a performance of “Beneath the Skin: an exploration of human qualities” at the Missoula International School in 2008. The performance was based on J. Ruth Gendler’s “The Book of Qualities,” which gives voice to a series of human traits, behaviors and emotions. The pieces I composed for this performance represent my attempt to translate these characteristics into music and sound.
