A short exersise in distortion and improvisation. A low day.

I like endings very much...

I like this song because I made it the 31th of december of 2000

lots of brass

different harmony

The lyrics dont say anything... I was just playing around. The music sounded to me like for playing it at a big concert.

Im a christian, so all of my lyrics tell about Christ. I wanted to add a cello and strings in the beginning and end of the song... I love the cello, I dont know how to play it but love that instrument!

I like endings.

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.
