The Music on the Player
"Blu" is a demo for my new cd "Approximately Blu"
The second piece is a live performance of the third part from a multi-movement work I composed in 2002, entitled "Your Tears are not Forgotten."
The instrumentation is for cello and assorted percussion with loopers and also features the notorious Ken Topham.
The third piece,"fantasy on Lux Aeterna" is a live performance with a strat, pod and boss looper. It has fragments of the Gregorian chant, "Lux Aeterna" weaving like threads in a tapestry through out. It's the last track on my now, cult, ep with_light.(FEB.2007)
The last two pieces are demos for my forthcoming cd "Approximately Blue".
Approximately Blue, my new CD, will be released soon(WELL, I'm just trying to stay optimistic).

For those of you who don’t celebrate or know what Sweetest Day is, here is how it got started and what it has come to mean…wonderful concept don’t you think?
How It Started
Over 60 years ago, a Cleveland man, believing that the city's orphans and shut-ins too often felt forgotten and neglected, conceived the idea of showing them that they were remembered. He did this through the distribution of small gifts. With the help of his friends and neighbors, he distributed these small remembrances on a Saturday in October. During the years that followed, other Clevelanders began to participate in the celebration ceremony, which came to be called "Sweetest Day". In time, the Sweetest Day idea of spreading cheer to the underprivileged was broadened to include everyone, and became an occasion for remembering others with a kind act or a small remembrance. And soon the idea spread to other cities all over the country.
What It Is Sweetest Day is celebrated on the third Saturday in October as a day to make someone happy. It is an occasion which offers all of us an opportunity to remember not only the sick, aged, and orphaned, but also friends, relatives and associates whose helpfulness and kindness we have enjoyed.
