My Music (scroll down for details) A Choral Menagerie A Christmas Lullaby Shakespeare Sonnet XXVII
A Mouse in the House A Song in the Night Music Box Lullaby Hymn of Peace

I've written a number of pieces of music for SATB choir, for two-part children's choir, unison children's choir
or solo vocal, and for piano. My latest is for orchestra and SATB choir titled Hymn of Peace.

On your first visit to the SibeliusMusic.com site where my music is available, you might need to download a free
program called Scorch to allow you to see, play and print the music. It is used by many music sites and contains
no spam, adware, etc. I have been using it for years with no problems.

Please contact me if you want permission to perform a piece in public or would prefer to buy multiple copies of one or
more pieces in normal printed music format.

A Choral Menagerie      - A fun piece for SATB choir which makes the perfect closer for a program. This piece has
                                               been very enthusiastically received and reviewed by performers and audience alike.
                                               Ideal for the higher level High School choir or College mixed chorus.
                                               An MP3 of a live performance by Grayson High School is available here.   A Cappella   6 minutes.

A Christmas Lullaby     - An original Christmas carol in the same style as Away in a Manger.
                                               SATB A Cappella   2 minutes.

Shakespeare Sonnet     - A setting of Shakespeare's Sonnet XXVII - Weary with Love
                                                SATB A Cappella   2 minutes.

A Mouse in the House   - Good fun for a junior choir with this simple piece.
                                                Two Part with easy piano accompaniment   2 minutes.

A Song in the Night         - An ethereal piece for a young solo voice or unison treble choir which offers plenty of scope
                                                 for painting word pictures and establishing a reflective mood. With a vocal range of only an octave
                                                 and an uncomplicated accompaniment, this piece should be well within the capabilities of most
                                                 junior choirs and soloists.
                                                 Unison with easy piano accompaniment   2 minutes.

Music Box Lullaby           - If you liked the melody of A Christmas Lullaby then you will enjoy this setting for Grade 3 - 4 piano.
                                                 Piano solo   2 minutes.

Hymn of Peace                  - A piece inspired by the centenary of a local heritage-listed church, it went on to become more of
                                                  a universal expression of hope for humankind. The MP3 version of a virtual performance gives a
                                                  good idea of what the piece should sound like, except that the simulated choristers can't sing the
                                                  words. However, you can read them while the piece plays at SibeliusMusic.com.
                                                Orchestra plus SATB chorus   5 minutes.
