My Souvenir Chestaareminders of the pastaais an ongoing collection of short, contrasting studies ranging in duration from about one to seven minutes. They celebrate pianists whose artistry I respect and whose friendships I relish. In addition, each segment of the full set is individually dedicated to young colleagues and friends with whom I work. Their collective energy, knowledge and wit continue to foster my own love for the art I revere. The emotional nature of each piece changes extensively andawhether they dress in garb that is comical, angry, jazz-pop inflected, aacademica or sedateathey are all musics instigated by the sounds of my personal remembrances. Book 2 was commissioned by Mr. Barry Snyder of New York City, New York. Additional financial support was provided by the School of Music at Stetson University, Timothy Peter, Dean.
