The Premiere Recording of my Violin Concerto (Katrina)!
Ittai Shapira, for whom I composed my concerto, recorded it with the Royal Liverpool Philharmonic last January. Now Champs Hill Records issues the release, also featuring Ittai’s ravishing performances of the Barber and Menotti concerti.
Although the release date is September 25, it’s available for pre-order now. And if 50 copies sell—including both physical and download copies—before October 1, the album will make the Billboard Classical Chart. So help me achieve that distinction by ordering it now for everyone on your holiday gift list!

Baritone Mark Walters as Duke Alfonso II in My Last Duchess
Together with librettist/director Tom Dulack, I’m seeking new productions of My Last Duchess, our one-act opera that premiered so successfully in April on Cutting Edge Concerts.
This fall I’m composing songs on the marvelous poetry of Emma Stace Darling, from her debut collection Girl on Fire. She’s a real discovery. Information on a premiere coming soon.
