I was doing some practicing earlier today and decided to hit record on my video camera. I am running through songs I haven’t played through in awhile. Songs include:
Scarborough Fair (0:51), A Lighter Shade of Blue (3:34), House of the Rising Sun (5:00), A Joyful Noise (9:34) and Lagrima (14:03)
Enjoy the good, bad, and ugly!!

Abana alathi fi ssama/Abana in Heaven is a beautiful piece of music by Laila Constantine. In this recording I am playing with my friend, Tsun-Hui Hung. She recorded her part in Hawaii and I recorded my part in Michigan and then combined the two performances. Here are the lyrics…
Abana in heaven
Hallowed be Your holy name
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
In all the earth as in heaven
Your kingdom come
Your will be done
In all the earth as in heaven
And give to us give us this day
Our daily bread
O Lord we pray
Forgive our sins as we forgive those
Who have sinned against us
And save us in time of trial
Deliver us from evil
Yours is the kingdom Yours the power
Yours is the glory now and forever
Abana in heaven Amen
Today is Sunday and many churches are closed because of the Corona virus so we thought we would record this. I hope you enjoy it!
I am collaborating with a friend from grad school. I have been stuck at home for the last week because of the corona outbreak and it has been fun collaborating with her. Such a beautiful piece and I think she plays so beautifully.
I just released a new album!! This is a collection of arrangements I’ve made of some of my favorite songs:

I’ve been a huge fan of Jimi Hendrix since I was in middle school and Purple Haze is one of my favorite songs of his. I decided to finally arrange it for guitar and it wasn’t easy, especially the solo. How do you arrange the solo and still have fingers available to play harmony parts???

Here is my arrangement of the Pat Metheny classic, Letter From Home. This is a piece I have always wanted to arrange and I finally did it. I ended up transposing and dropping it down an octave to make it work. Score/tab is available at Sheet Music Plus (Click on the picture).
Here is my arrangement of the classic song from the Wizard of Oz. The music was composed by Harold Arlen with lyrics by Yip Harburg. This arrangement is available from Sheet Music Plus (Click on the picture).
Here is my arrangement of the (BEAUTIFUL) theme from the movie, Schindler’s List. Score/tab available at Sheet Music Plus (Click on the picture below).
One of those pieces I wish I had written. Beautiful melody. The score/tab is available at Sheet Music Plus. (Click on the picture)
