I am a clarinet player with a fugue fetish. I strive to make quality arrangements of (mostly) 18th-century contrapuntal music of various sorts for chamber music groups that include clarinet. I prefer arranging for quartets of musicians - to my mind, a quartet is the ideal chamber music format. I regularly play music in a group that includes flute, clarinet and two bassoons, so many of my efforts available on IMSLP are for this grouping. I usually include "engraving files" with arrangements I upload, and these will be handy if you would like to try one of my arrangements with different combinations of instruments. For help managing that, I recommend Dorico music notation software.

I am also the author of a book of delightful piano music, titled "Studies in Song". This volume includes 85 short, intermediate-level pieces in "standard song" form, and is great stuff for increasing one's piano reading proficiency. It is not published on IMSLP, but can be found -here-

My home is in Seattle, Washington, USA.
