I have a new string quartet arrangement of Steven Curtis Chapman’s Cinderella. The viola tugs at the heart strings with the opening melody. By the end of the arrangement all of the parts have had a chance to play melody. It is available for immediate download here.

Snake Out is now available for as a digital download. It is a great piece to feature an advanced bassist or cellist with your beginning string orchestra. Learning to play c natural on the a string is required for the orchestra. The first performance of this work was at Music Camp.
