JUST THE BEGINNING  is a project that took the entirety of my undergraduate career to complete and is something I look back on very fondly. As I was pursuing degrees in both Percussion Performance and Music Composition, I was required to prepare both a Senior Recital and a Senior Capstone Project. I decided to combine the two and take on this massive project of writing and performing an entire recital. This concert features EIGHT original works for percussion all performed and written by me. I was given the opportunity to lecture/present on my work and talk about my inspirations as a composer and writing process. This has become a very personal performance and a concert that jump started my compositional career. All works performed are available for purchase on my website!
