"Music for Flute & Orchestra" was written for flutist William Wittig in 1990.
"Song for the Children" was written in 1986, scored for alto saxophone and WX7 MIDI Wind Controller, strings, 2 DX synthesizers and a pipe organ.
"Una novella della sera primavera" ("A novel of the Spring evening") -- no date of composition provided in notes -- features the oboe as a central character, and the piece is "respectfully and affectionately dedicated to Louise Ingalls Brown for the inspiration and support she has offered for these many years."
The "Songs of Desperation and Comfort" were written in September and early October of 1993 during a residency in the Villa Serbelloni at Bellagio, Italy. They were commissioned as the 100th world premier of the Cleveland Chamber Symphony, directed by Edwin London.
