Rostand's Chantecler is a new musical with collaborator Brian Vinero. It is an astonishing work--probably the most complicated and brilliant work I've completed! My fifth musical, Mark the Halls is a send up of Hallmark Christmas movies. My third musical, The Tinsel in the Toilet features a wonderful Christmas chorus and a variety of interesting pop styles! There's A Light is now available as a new choral work on JW Pepper.
