==Notes==<br />
Seven Thoughts for Glockenspiel (2015) is scored for glockenspiel, two rin, three elephant bells, two magic wands, and nine graduated telephone bells, along with a variety of implements; some of the instruments are also utilized as implements. The work was inspired by the compositions and improvisations of percussionist, Jean-Charles François, especially his work for snare drum, Fragments II. The complexity of “noise” and its juxtaposition with “the sublime” drives many of my compositions. The longtime challenge of realizing this aesthetic using a conventional, pitched percussion instrument like the glockenspiel came to fruition in this work and will be further developed in future compositions. <br />
