ARRANGEMENTS
"I love re-conceptualizing existing works in a classically-based medium, or taking existing classical works and showing how they can be heard in a new light on the guitar. Since I'm an avid improviser this list doesn't begin to cover the works I've toyed with in some capacity, but these are all the works that have been committed to notation and performed, either by myself or the wonderful musicians I've been fortunate to collaborate with over the years. If you'd like information on any of the below, feel free to contact me - I have scores for most all of them, but note that I do not sell, distribute, or otherwise profit from arrangements of unlicensed non-Public Domain works."
