Losing Ground (2005) »»»
My friend Bryan Wizemann wrote a great play some time ago, and when he wanted to turn that play into a movie, he asked me to write some little musical snippets for the soundtrack. Most of the stuff I wrote did not get included in the movie, but I think I created some quirky little soundscapes that have a life of their own.

• Faraway Banjo
• Long Theme
• Low Riff
• Main Theme
• Short Theme
• Slide Blues

Desdemona »»»
My friend Matthieu Cornillon (affectionately nicknamed “Doc”) was directing a small theatre production based on Shakespeare’s Macbeth called Desdemona. I wrote a main theme for the production, as well as a ton of little variations for scene changes. The play is by Paula Vogel and was performed at Theater 54 in New York City, June 2003.

• Desdemona - Main Theme

The Last Menagerie »»»
My friend Sarah Snider from NYU hooked me up with this little gig writing incidental music for an off-off-off-broadway theatre production called The Last Menagerie based on The Glass Menagerie. The music that I wrote was actually not all that bad, but it did help in convincing me that classical-type composition and/or soundtrack-type composition was not my forte. The play was directed by David Vining and played at the HERE Arts Center in New York City, Jan-Feb. 2001.

• Amanda’s Theme
• Jim’s Theme
• Laura’s Theme
• Laura’s Theme (Alt)
