Works for Guitar

3. The Grey Islands, Op. 33 (1986) This work is a setting of excerpts from John Steffler's book The Grey Islands. It tells the story of a man who spends the summer on these isolated islands off the northern coast of Newfoundland. It is scored for Soprano, Clarinet and Guitar and is a rather dark and difficult work. It requires a pre-recorded tape of John Steffler reading from his work. In place of the tape, a narrator can be used.

2. Canticum for Solo Guitar, Op. 16 (1975) This work is an arrangement for solo guitar of some of the material in my work Five Songs. It exploits the lyrical and sustaining quality of the guitar.

1. Five Songs, Op. 15 (1974) These songs to an original text are scored for Soprano, Viola, Guitar and Clarinet. They are very sparse in texture and very dark.
