One of my auntie's got killed coming home from work late one evening by a drunk driver who was not obeying the traffic signals. I remember thinking to myself that this wasn't fair. It wasn't right. This was the first time that someone close to me was ushered out of this world. I started looking at my own life. Was I ready to leave this world behind? My auntie didn't get to decide. One moment she was here. The next she was gone, leaving her children behind. As I looked at myself I noticed there were a lot of flaws in my character. I liked some things about myself, however, there were a lot of other character traits where I felt that I was lacking in integrity and honesty. The question, What am I doing here? made me want to correct those flaws so that I could feel good about meeting God when I leave this world. I have found that change is possible.

“My Notturno, which is ushered in by twelve chimes, creates a cool, midnight ambience, the grotesque mischief of the witching hour, free of rhythm and tonality and nevertheless as melodious as a framed image.“ –Florian Feilmair.  Notturno has all the richness and succinctness of an impressionistic musical miniature. It’s elegantly pianistic writing will appeal to advanced students and performers and makes it a jewel of an encore piece.

The joy of Easter comes to life in this spirited arrangement of Rejoice, the Lord Is King. Syncopated rhythms drive the opening, and a fanfare-like right hand introduces the main melody. The music then segues into a sweeter, gentler variation of the hymn tune, accompanied by arpeggios and simple counterpoint. A modulation from C major to F major leads the piece through satisfying reharmonizations, and a transition imitating the sound of a brass ensemble pushes toward a fortissimo, breathtaking climax in G major. The arrangement requires playing some blocked octaves and blocked four-notes chords that span an octave, as well as facility in moving across the full range of the keyboard. A dazzling ending makes great use of these extreme high and low ends of the instrument, ushering in the brilliant light of Easter.
