Here’s a musical snippet from the last performance at the Bowery Poetry Club in NYC. (see this post).
This venue has been home to many colleagues of mine over the years and it was a pleasure to perform its stage!
As many may already know I’ve been busy writing music for several albums and there’s no better way to develop new ideas than to hash it out on live – It was a lot of fun playing with these guys, and I’m eager to keep delving deeper into the sound of this repertoire.

Once in a while I get the urge to do something completely different in music for the sake of learning something new. This is a short chamber piece I wrote in 2006 for two violins and cello. At the time, I was inspired by the wind ensemble composer Mark Camphouse’s work “Watchman, Tell Us Of The Night” which is a stunning composition inspired by child abuse. I decided to use his moods as a starting point for my composition, and wholla! My first piece entirely for strings in two short movements.
A thousand thank yous:
Jeremy Harman – Cello
Jesse Irons – Violin
Shaw Pong Liu – Violin
