I recently learned that my beginner band piece Heroes Return will be on the Band New Music Reading Session at this year's Midwest Band and Orchestra Clinic. This is the first time I've had a piece selected for a Midwest reading session, and I couldn't be happier! 

The session will be Monday, December 19 at 10:30 - Noon in W178 (McCormack Place). For a demo/preview of the piece, click here. 

If you're at Midwest, I'd love to see you there! 

For a limited time, buy the sheet music PDF for only $10, and print however many you need for your ensemble! Click here for more info and to claim this offer!  (through my BuyMeACoffee page)

I let it slide for a few years, but now I'm getting back to it!

On my Gumroad page, you can buy many of my compositions as E-Print only (no physical products to ship). Everything is PDF delivery and instant. I'll also run the occasional deal on sheet music, for example: discounting Christmas music in the months leading up to the holidays.

The Good Samaritan 

Canata for Mezzo, Tenor, Baritone, Bass, SATB and Chamber Orchestra. Based on the parable in the Gospel of Luke, chapter 10. 

The main hub to order my sheet music is through J.W. Pepper, one of the largest sheet music distributors in the world. You can get to my page by visiting https://www.jwpepper.com/myscore/composerchris, or by clicking here! (<---shorter way :D )

To any fellow composers looking for sheet music distribution for your self-published works, I HIGHLY recommend you check out MyScore! 

I'm excited to introduce Come, Thou Long Expected Jesus and Gentle Mary Laid Her Child to you! Both were written with church choirs in mind in regards to technique, but both also allow for a broad range of expression for school and university choirs. 

Follow the links to preview both of them, sheet music is available through J.W. Pepper.

Thanks! 

I was thrilled and honored to be sent this link by Rev. Mark Green, Minister of Music at First Baptist Church of Gainesville, GA. 

I can't explain the feeling of hearing a piece performed so well by musicians hundreds of miles away, when it started as pencil scribbles in my office...well, it's exciting, humbling, energizing...so many things!

Thank you, Rev. Green and FBC Gainesville!! 

For Trumpet, French Horn and Trombone.

Substitute parts available:

• Baritone TC for Trombone
• Alt Trombone for French Horn

I'm pleased to announce a consortium for new music! If you're unfamiliar with a consortium in the context of commissioning new music, it basically is a way of sharing a commission with other ensembles and performers. This benefits the musicians, as they don't have to carry the commission fee alone, and it benefits the composer, because he/she gets more performances! It's really a win-win. 

This consortium is for Incarnation, which will be for SATB choir and concert band. It will be a sacred Christmas work…
