Here is another intermediate level piece that I thought I’d share. It is a good exercise in holding longer note values with your pinky and playing shorter quarter and eighth notes with the other fingers.
You can also see me play some of these excerpts on youtube.
Here is the exposition to the g minor sonata:
Here is an intermediate piece that I always liked. It’s part of a sequence of Japanese preludes. This is the third. I plan on uploading many more for my students who like to play these shorter pieces. Also for those of you who find any notational errors in any scores PLEASE e-mail me! I will be happy to fix them, as I do not have an assembly line of people to proof read I will occassionally miss something.
Hey everyone,
I finally got this thing going. I will try to upload some choral and chamber music as well, and some easier pieces for my students who asked about it.

This one is based on the Tango except it has got a lot of romantic and classical influence to it. The middle section is more like Ravel or Debussy…very dreamy. It runs about 6 minutes.
This piece is basically a sonata of the classical period. It follows in the footsteps of Mozart Beethoven and Haydn with a few 20th century additions. It is about 5 minutes.
I wrote this piece after coming back from Japan. It is an imitation of the snow falling, coming and going with beauty-the clip says it all. It is between 2-3 minutes.
This piece is based on the 20th c ideas of Prokofiev and Bartok. It is somewhat percussive but at the same time uses a lot of Jazz rhythms as well. It is full of ii V I progressions and uses Jazz voicings all over the place. This one is between 4 and 5 minutes.
