"I compose acoustic and electronic music. These works could be termed “neo-impressionist†as I strive to present musical impressions of real and imaginary environments. I am also fascinated by temporal structures; I experiment with forms which are novel but hopefully perceivable by the listener. My ultimate goal is to create works with intriguing sonic surfaces and strong, meaningful structures."
