This is right, this is right, I will hold it all again To regret, to regret, will change the course that we have set This is right, this is right, I will hold it all again Black and white, black and white, will guide the eastern dawn to light

about

"A beautiful lament that conveys with impeccable clarity what it is to give one's self to their own fate"
- The 405

“Music that transcends and transfixes, challenges and comforts”
Highway 81 Revisited

“A beautiful and meditative piece of art that surprises and delights by virtue of its embrace and suspension of traditional form, and its avant garde approach”
-All Around Sound


An experimental elegy for chamber ensemble in three movements. Orchestrations of classical guitar, winds, brass, synthesizer, vocals, and piano are woven with tendrils of string passages and field recordings. The movements are exercises and expressions on theme, working within the chambers and corridors of an overarching reference to inner cathedrals and internal sanctuary.

Veriditas Recordings image

Veriditas Recordings New York, New York

Veriditas embodies creative vitality, lushness, and growth. We are dedicated to the cultivation of the sublime arena in which artistic vision is brought to life. The word itself is derived from “viridity”, particularly associated with the 10th century abbess and visionary Hildegard von Bingen, who coined the term to symbolize spiritual and physical health as an aspect of the divine nature. ... more
