Finally...I Am a Published Musician!

A year and a half after acquiring the music software program Sibelius 6, I have published my first two scores on ScoreExchange.com (the new website which is the successor to SibeliusMusic.com). This is an exciting moment for me as a burgeoning composer and arranger of classical piano music.

My first score is a fairly simple arrangement of "O Holy Night," which can be found here: http://www.scoreexchange.com/scores/115949.html

The other score is an instrumental piano piece called "Death and Resurrection." This is a tribute to my Uncle Carl, who died of cancer some months back. It's here: http://www.scoreexchange.com/scores/116000.html

Note: To view and listen to these scores you need Scorch, which is the free downloadable program that the site uses to play back Sibelius scores.

I'm currently working on a brand-new arrangement of "We Three Kings" that I hope will be ready soon. I plan to write my own arrangements of other Christmas hymns and other favorite traditional hymns, as well as to produce occasional original compositions.

I look forward to writing lots more music! God has given me this wonderful gift and I plan to use it for His glory.
