I recorded this short solo vocal with a minidisc recorder while up in a tree. This is a one-take, one-track recording (with lots of delay added, to be sure). The bird you hear was actually accompanying me at the time. A later, expanded version…

I recorded this short piece on guitar for my friend Andy Hulse's 2003 film "High Lonesome". This part is for a driving scene with no dialogue. Early morning in a southwestern Texas landscape.

A meditative space for guitar, harp, vibraphone, english horn, french horn, viola, cello, and double bass, from my large work "Mandala of the Four Directions" (2004).

Performed by my wife, Marie Rinkoski, on clarinet. Recorded in the woods around Ithaca NY, and layered with some scratchy vinyl pops. This clarinet melody is the introduction to a song I wrote on one of Pablo Neruda's Sonnets.

I like endings very much...
