Compositions 1/21/12

Since I was fourteen I’ve been composing (classical style) music. Most of it is for piano because I never expected that I would ever hear anything of mine written for orchestra, so why bother. Recently I acquired “Sibelius”music-writing software that provides quite good playback of all sorts of instrumental sounds, so I’ve started writing more things for various instrumental combinations.

These “performances” are computer-generated rather than being performances by actual musicians. They lack the subtleties that a good interpretation would provide.


All of this music is copyrighted and may not be performed or reproduced in any manner or form without written permission from the composer.



This is a special for my wife, finished 11/8/09.

      Dwight, I am so proud of you. I closed my eyes and cleared my mind and listened to the compositions enjoying each one. Amelia’s Question was my favorite. Hope you don’t mind if I send it off to Japan for John and his family to listen to. I know they will enjoy it.

      They finally found an English speaking piano teacher for the kids, and they all like him.

      I’ll be looking for more. Jack

      Dwight—I like your String quartette and Lyric piece.
      They are interesting. Thanks for sharing. Ginny

      It took me a while to figure out how to get to the page, but I must say it was well worth the time. I cannot seem to choose any one composition. They are all wonderful. Keep up the good work.
