My setting of Mary Baker Eddy’s poem “Satisfied”.

All Is Well. My upbeat, happy musical interpretation of well known hymn melody.

The Three Golden Rules of Practice.

I interview Mary Chun, conductor. What does a conductor do? How do you "play" the orchestra?

“Song of Soul”. Tracy Hinman soprano, Peter B. Allen piano. Recorded Sunday February 20, 2022.

An hour in the life of a composer. (Me)

I share my sketches and process of writing CSHymn 161. Watch the kernel of an idea develop and expand.

A short improvisation on Hymn 161 in the CS Hymnal.

It matters not what be thy lot, So Love doth guide;

Keep working every day.

Life is connected.

Each thing flows into the next.

One thing affects the other.

My take on a melody (Hymn 97 CS Hymnal) which contrasts the lamenting in A minor, with the fruition in A major. Counter melody which I sing, is for french horn. Will be for 28 piece orchestra.

Dawn and I have fun talking music. What’s the smallest violin Dawn has played? How did she get so good on the violin? How come she sounds like Dawn, and no on else?

I share my dad’s favorite hymn. We carry our favorite hymns with us wherever we go. They are our friends and companions on life’s journey. They comfort us, especially when we need them the most.

Expression without fear is based three basic ideas -

•set your intention

•do it for others

•focus on the process
