Compositions:

Partite Variate Nr.3 for flute and guitar (score and parts)
18 pages
In this composition the composer presents strange sounds on both instruments.

"...The many 'special effects' including slapping the strings, pizzi-cato, glissandi, indistinct note production, etc all add to the tension of this extraordinary piece.
For high-standard duos of this instrumentation wanting something in a 'modern' vein for their repertoire this is well worth a look at. The presentation is very good with seperate, bound parts for each player." (Classical Guitar Magazine 10/2007)
