    National Parks showcase the geographic diversity of our nation and the beauty of Mother Earth.

    Yosemite National Park

    In tribute to these natural treasures—and to unite two of my greatest passions, choral music and the outdoors—I’ve embarked on an ambitious long-term endeavor: to compose a unique choral work inspired by each of the U.S. National Parks.

    This journey will begin with a new set of compositions featured/premiered in an upcoming concert season with the Tucson Masterworks Chorale.

    New River Gorge National Park & Preserve

    Through this undertaking, I hope to create music that honors the grandeur and spirit of these treasured places.

    While acknowledging that no composition can fully capture the vast beauty of Mother Nature, I believe her splendor and power demand to be celebrated through song.

    Dry Tortugas National Park

    My aim is not to replicate their majesty, but to honor and respect it, using music to evoke their strength and presence.

    The theme of this endeavor resonates with millions who share a deep love and connection to our national parks.

    Mt. Rainier National Park

    These places belong to all of us, and through this journey, I hope to connect audiences to these landscapes in a meaningful way.

    Through choral music, we aim to honor the parks’ enduring presence and inspire others to see them with renewed reverence and care.
