I had a great time playing with FACE Improv last week. Upcoming shows include the Danny Sher Sextet at Bar 4, Travis Reuter Quintet at Ibeam, and a big show at Coco 66 with the Salo, Mary of Egypt and the David Crowell Ensemble (Feb. 27th).

I’m also hard at work on a new piece for chamber ensemble, commissioned by the Duquesne Contemporary Ensemble. Generally speaking, January has been an intense month of composing, with new music for the David Crowell Ensemble as well. I’m starting 2011 off right!
