New Commission from Amaranth String Quartet

I'm so thrilled to announce a commission from Amaranth, a new "lady-power string quartet" made up of my friends and colleagues here in San Francisco. 

One of the things I love about Amaranth is their interesting approach to programming. My work, along with other new pieces by local composers, will be interspersed between movements of Mozart's "dissonance" quartet (No. 19, K. 465).

Paul Barnes loved performing my Piano Thoughts, Vol. 1 so much last October, he commissioned me for more! My second set of short piano pieces (Piano Thoughts, Vol. 2)  will be premiered by Paul at Symphony Space in NYC this coming April. I'm so excited to be working with an artist of such calibre and renown, who regularly champions young composers!
