The only true "Youth" piece still around
Nightingale's farewell to the Oak
Wrote this at about the age of 14.  It's all that's
left of what was to be a ballet based on a Wilde
story "The Nightingale and the Rose"
Written in 1976 when my
daughter Janina was born
Janina's
Lullaby
Written for and sung to
Janina at her wedding to
Steven Campbell

Dottie Lee's
Song
A loving song for my wife
For my brother Charles who
loved the tango.  He is the cello
Tango in A
Canzona di Donna
As written for my niece Donna.  
Charley Brighton heard it - transcribed
it and performed it - and I started
writing for the Euphonium and other
brass
Just a love song that happened.  
Even wrote words.
In My Heart
Fooling around with some rhythm
samples - my wife liked them - so
I wrote this piece with them.
