Thematic index of compositions I regard my compositions to be organized according to a number of different themes which characterize my artistic and intellectual concerns. A given work may fall squarely within a single theme, or may intersect a number of them, or be orthogonal to all of them. Some of the themes pertain to sonic aspects of a work, such as instrumentation or structural conception, whereas others pertain to metaphor, inspiration or critical inquiry. For those familiar with some of my work, this index may help in guaging what to expect from unfamiliar works. For performers and potential collaborators or commissioners, this index may also serve to indicate the realm of possibilities from which future projects may begin to be conceived.
