Holy Week 2024

This has been a busy three months. I have been composing regularly. New works include four new children's choir anthems for Lent as well as a Christmas Anthem for Children, SATB original work based on Genesis 1 and John 1, "ST. ANNE VARIATIONS" a four title set of variations on the hymn "O God, Our Help in Ages Past" as well as several original handbell compositions. Several new commissions are in the works and in progress. 

Also in the works is a companion volume to Boo and His Amazing Bells which will be marketed as a children's curriculum for handchimes. Our goal is to have this available in January 2025. Much work left to do on this, but we are excited about the ways it can help introduce more children to bell ringing. 

In addition to a busy composing schedule, I have had the privilege of leading three Spring Festivals and have humble accepted the position as Interim Director of the Charlotte Bronze Handbell Ensemble. 

Blessings to you all this Holy Week and prayers for a most joyous Easter Celebration on Sunday!
