Spaindango: a Caprice for Harpsichord, Vivace Press, 1992
from Contemporary Composers for Harpsichord, Vol. 1

Fantasy and Fugue Frantique for Solo Harpsichord, Vivace Press, 2003
        The dramatic fantasy opens with an unmeasured prelude section followed by a toccata area of mixed meter utilizing the full range of the harpsichord. These two sections combine and intertwine before introducing the jaunty fugue subject. A slower section interrupts the fugue and contrasts the sounds of the lute and regular string sound before returning to the bravura fantasy and toccata themes.
