Original Music

Back in the early 2000s I had one of the most powerful dreams I have ever had. I was looking out the back door of the house I grew up in in MA, and I was hearing a symphony perform this melody. I was so incredibly moved, and with great luck, I remembered the melody and was able to record a sample of it when I woke up. I lived with the melody for a few years, and then filled it out a bit more with a little more writing and asked my friend, Larry Williams, (who happened to be the best man at my parents’ wedding) to perform a simple and lovely version of it for me. This was the first piece of anything that I created, of which I was very proud. Thank you Larry for helping me bring this to life.
