Cantus in memoriam (2018) is an unattributed piece, leaving it open to honour any person at any time.
The piece follows a simple format and is easily playable my ensembles of and mid to high-level ability.
It is a very simple piece in terms of technicalities. It makes reference to the idea of a guard of honour through the military style snare and bass drum style. The string parts play atmospheric roles adding tone colours to the overall sonority and building up a rich texture. The piano theme at the start carries through and can be heard in other lines throughout the work mimicking that original three-note descent.

Mitch Sturman asked me to compose a piece to commemorate our mutual friend, composer Elliot Del Borgo, who passed only a week after he had conducted his commissioned works at 2013's Concert of Premieres at Wilson Junior High  School in El Centro, CA.  The result was the Passacaglia and Fughetta in  Memoriam Elliot Del Borgo (1938-2013).    

The two sections were originally conceived as two separate ideas, hoping one  would come to fruition. Both sections began to take root, so eventually the two  pieces were combined into a single piece.      

At Mr. Sturman's suggestion, the passacaglia begins with the three initials of Mr.  Del Borgo.

one of its 17th century senses: a small collection of modest instrumental movements. This item contains the score, the solo part and orchestral parts for 43321. The score plus the solo part only is sold as another item

Estampie da capo Orchestra details: A small string orchestra is suggested. String quintet may be used if necessary (although the first violin part in the second movement will be nearly entirely double stops).
