For those who like my Fragments For an Unfinished Requiem: IV. Lacrimosa (Homage to A. Schnittke)... Here is II. Kyrie (Homage to A. Pärt) for String Ensemble... which has clear characteristics from Pärt with a few things that I do:

My new concerto for piano and theremin in two movements, Desiring Machines, just got published on the Universal Edition website!... a piece about the comparative machinic aspects of the piano and the theremin inspired by my discovery of Régis Campo's Dancefloor With Pulsing played by thereminist Carolina Eyck... It's my first piece written without my custom AI algorithms in a while... all inspiration and handwriting (or rather Sibelius-writing lol)...

A little audio excerpt is available in the UE webpage... Recording and record publishing coming soon!

Don't you think this new composition I am working on, a concerto for piano and theremin, looks like a morbier cheese?
