My orchestral music is a result of my association with the Regina Symphony Orchestra. My earliest work for them, “Chronicle for Orchestra”, was written in 1992. The Radio Music Department of the CBC commissioned my first Symphony in 1999. From 2001 to 2003, I was the orchestra’s composer-in-residence, thanks to a grant from the Saskatchewan Arts Board. I happily completed several overtures and my first Concerto for Piano and Orchestra during this time. Included here are also two large works for Chorus and Orchestra*.
