I strive to create meaningful, expressive, and quality music for ALL in the marching arts community! I take pride in creating music that changes lives.
Services Offered
Arranging and Composing
I arrange and compose music for marching bands, pep bands, and indoor ensembles. I can make any needs (instrumentation, style, length, etc…) work for any size program. I construct the overall score, coordinate overall design, and arrange the winds score. Percussion parts are written by my friend and colleague, Jeff Larch. Together, we deliver a high quality and affordable product. In general, I offer two show types. They are:
Custom Show: If your program is looking for new show, I can create a custom show. This is generally 7-8 minutes of music and includes music for winds and percussion. The process to create a custom show takes several months.
Semi-Custom Show: If your program is looking for the overall feel of a competitive show, but is lacking the budget, I can create a semi-custom show for you. This type of show uses music that I’ve already arranged that is then tailored for your program. This reduces cost by 50% (or more) and allows for bands will smaller budgets a chance to still receive the same quality music that other bands receive. Turnaround time for these types of shows is only 2-3 weeks.
Teaching and Judging
I love to teach marching bands! Whether you need a week-long clinic or a workshop, I offer my services to anyone. I specialize in anything music—from sectionals to full ensemble.
I love to judge marching bands! I have judged for competitions across the country and I’m happy to adjudicate for your festival, show, contest, etc. I generally judge music ensemble, music effect, music individual, music, and overall effect.
Consulting and Coordination
I offer my consulting services and program coordinator services to any band. If you need an extra set of administrative eyes on your program, want to have a program coordinator, want general consulting, etc. then I can help!
