My years working in theater have given me many opportunities to write incidental music, feature songs, and even entire musicals.
My years serving Lutheran congregations in musical leadership have provided many opportunities to set, adapt and arrange sacred texts and tunes, both within and beyond the Lutheran tradition.

It is a great joy to find new ways to sing old melodies, and new ways to hear familiar, or even not-so-familiar, poetry.
Sometimes a composer knows exactly what instruments and voices should go with a particular piece. More often, a composer is given the list of musicians first, and must make the right music it work with the available forces. This means every opportunity is a unique challenge, and no combination is too strange.

There was a time that it felt like I needed to post my music to all of the streaming platforms in order to have any chance of becoming visible. But it turned out that the firehose of music, together with the lack of good discovery mechanisms, meant there was effectively no way to harness modern streaming platforms for an artist like me. Meanwhile, these services were all making money from my music (by selling advertising) without compensating me even so much as a single penny.
