Sweet Whoop Ti Do: the rhythm of the first few notes of this piece lent itself to these words, which stuck in my head and remained its title.  |  Listen on SoundCloud
Strange Marinara: if Paganini and Ysaye had a jam session together, perhaps it might have sounded something like this—an Italian dish with an offbeat flavor, implacable, and without question, a little strange.   |  Listen on SoundCloud
Charred in a Minute: was written in the hour just before midnight on the last night that I had decided to write. It should be played scorchingly fast in a minute or less.   |   Listen on SoundCloud
Tangy: Simply put, a tango.   |   Listen on SoundCloud
Honey Iris: a sweet love song, hearkening back to the 30’s and 40’s, a favorite flavor and flower.   |   Listen on SoundCloud
Rock Salt and Bitters: an homage to stadium rock, beat box, and exploring the limits of what the violin might be able to pull off, given the opportunity.   |   Listen on SoundCloud

Cost: $50

Listen on SoundCloud

May Basket is my musical celebration of the month of May: Shy crocuses peeking out from the ground in the earliest days; the night air, thick with the scent of lilies and lilacs, the evenings growing warmer and full of potential under a clear sky lit by moonlight; an explosion of flowery blooms all competing for attention in a kaleidoscope of brilliant color.
