The 2010's

 Return to the Symphonic: A time to return to the ancient ways of pencil on orchestral score paper. Wynton calls again - premieres with Berlin, NY Phil, London. The OLYMPIAN debuts at Kennedy Center 24 years to the date of its premiere with Cleveland Orchestra; DYNASTY Double Concerto then premieres with Cleveland and Atlanta. More in the works.....

The 2000's

 The Digital World: A new challenge and platform to create. The work expands to include internationally-distributed real time performances and collaborations bridging peoples across diverse continents and cultures.

The 1990's

 The Symphonic Period:  Various projects with orchestras in Cleveland, Atlanta and beyond. The era culminated in a series of projects with Brothers Rob Gibson, Wynton Marsalis and Jazz@Lincoln Center, the NYC Ballet, the New York Philharmonic, the Film Society of New York. The largest of these projects was "ALL RISE" which premiered at Avery Fisher Hall for the Millenium and subsequently toured to some of the world's greatest orchestras before being recorded by the Los Angeles Philharmonic.

The 1980's

 The Film & Television Era:  William VanDerKloot (L), Michael Simpson and James Oliverio (R) received Emmies for creating the "WORLD of AUDUBON" series. My award was for the original soundtrack. Four more Emmies for original music scores would follow in the ensuing decade.

The 1970's

 No Electricity in those Days: Burning the midnight flame (quite literally) getting ready for the first entire evening concert of my original music and media compositions: Recent Accessible Works (1978)

1960's (The Ancient Days)

 I was a Child and she was a Child...  The halcyon days of my youth. I was convinced that if I stared long enough out across the shores of Lake Erie I would see Hawaii (This was pre-geography class, of course).
