Women Composers Collective is premiering a brand new piece of mine for Piano Trio, “Blossom”, on Saturday, January 31st, 2026, as a part of the Glenview Classical Series. This is a piece about growth - the inconsistent, difficult, painful, and still often beautiful path of coming into oneself. It is discovering vulnerability and softness in a world that is often harsh and punitive, and allowing walls to come down despite fear.

The Bridge Music Collective will be premiering a new piece of mine, “Forrest Cave”, on Sunday, March 8th, as a part of the Glenview Classical Series. They are a unique group comprised of Oboe, Clarinet, Violin, Viola, and Bass, which incredibly fun to write for and completely out of my usual wheelhouse. This piece was inspired by video game music, which has also been a fascination for me as it is often incredibly complex and sets the tone and pacing of the games, and yet it is an art form that most people don’t readily think of when talking about serious music. No game would be complete without the music, and some - like the Super Mario Brothers theme - are a fabric of our cultural ethos, recognized even by those who don’t play video games.
The concert will be at St. Paul Lutheran Church in Oakland, and will also comprise of pieces by other local composers. They explore a wide range of composition techniques and inspirations, and are all well worth a listen.

December 12, 13, 14, 2025: Choir Piece “Resilience” World Premiere
I have been a part of the Free Key Choir, a community-run choir which only sings music written by its members, for the last 3 years. This year, we premiere a piece I wrote to the poem “Resilience” written by Piper Lee. It’s a song about keeping our softness as well as our strength in the face of adversity, and feels incredibly relevant to the times we are going through. Life, though, is nothing but challenging at all times, and it is through holding fast to what we believe in, to loved ones around us, and compassion and empathy for the world that we survive and thrive.
I look forward to singing this piece with Free Key Choir through the Glenview Classical Series, two communities that have been dear to me. Concerts are December 12th (Friday) at 7:30p, and 13th (Saturday) at 2pm and 7:30pm, and December 14th (Sunday) at 4pm.
