I promised my students I’d jam a little on the fiddle for them for Halloween, so here I am, laying out a metal version of the end of “This is Halloween” from (one of my FAVORITE movies) Nightmare Before Christmas. Enjoy!
And Happy Halloween! đ

Basement Jams: Looper Exp 2, âPassacagliaâ
Today in my basement studio I again experimented with the AudioKit L7 looper app, but this time I took a 17th century Passacaglia from the Rosary Sonata by H.I.F. Biber, and made it my own!
Video from Debut of âNevermoreâ
I just realized that I never shared the video from Charlotte Van Houtenâs premiere performance of âNevermoreâ! ?
Here it is!! Finally a live rendition of itâweâre of course planning on recording it (with two more movements!!) this summer… ?
Behind the Scenes: Rehearsing “The Old Beggar-Woman”
Soprano Lauren Jorgenson and I got to get some rehearsal time in this morning, working on The Old Beggar-Woman from my upcoming Bros. Grimm Song Cycle ! Not too shabby so far…
The lesson here… when you see an old woman catch on fire, for godâs sake, put out the flames! ??
Come to our Modern Musicale on April 7 to hear us perform it!
On Super Bowl LIII TV!
I donât know if you happened to catch a glimpse of a certain Super Bowl promotional video that aired about an hour and a half before the start of the game. But if you did, you might have caught a glimpse of me playing with the CMG Music Recording orchestra on site at Warner Bros. Studio, at the famous Eastwood Scoring Stage, where all the famous composers of the Golden Age of film recorded their music!
It was a unique experience and I am so honored to have been asked to participate. đ
Check out the full video below, and enjoy not only the video screenshots but a few backstage shots as well!
