- I'm very pleased to announce the release of the CD "Sustenance," which includes a recording of my piece Sustenance Variations. The disc, on New Focus Recordings, features new chamber works for guitar, and audio "passages" that lead the listener from one work to another. Guitarist Daniel Lippel's collaborators on the disc include the quartet Flexible Music, for which Sustenance Variations was written. The disc is available for purchase or download (plus some streaming sound clips) here.
