http://yookyoungyong.com/product/large-stripe-latte-mug-orange/?add-to-cart=408 I’m so excited to share that Wendy Richman’s first solo album Vox/Viola is now available on New Focus Recordings! Out now on streaming/digital platforms, and in hard copy after the new year. All of the tracks on this were commissioned by and for Wendy, and are linked together through their use of her dual talents as violist and singer. My piece, Veiled, started out as a commission for Wendy from the Strathmore Music Center in summer 2011, and was revised several times over the years into its present state. Please take a listen to this amazing album: I’m humbled to be included alongside everyone else that’s been on this project over the years, and so happy that it is finally out there to hear.

isotretinoin without script Back in December I premiered a new work for piano and electronics called Invention. You can read about the piece here, and have a listen to a live recording of the performance below.

Here’s a recent video of me performing Chez Monk, a solo piano piece I wrote a few years ago. I decided to dust it off for our composition division recital at Catholic, which we did on 2/28/2018. Enjoy!:

Back in December I led a group composition project at Catholic University, where I teach. Called Scenes from Catholic University, the project paired students and faculty from the composition and piano divisions together to create a work that was largely inspired by Schumann’s Op 15 Kinderszenen. You can watch my colleague Nikita Fitenko play my contribution, Where the Sidewalk Ends, below, and read more about the piece here

The amazing violist Wendy Richman is heading into the recording studio later this spring to make her first solo album. I’m honored that she’s including Veiled, a new (more compact) version of Highway Music, a piece I wrote for her a few years ago, alongside awesome music by Jason Eckhardt, Ken Ueno, Christian Carey, David Smooke, Lou Bunk, Everette Minchew, Arlene Sierra, and Jose-Luis Hurtado. All of the pieces on this record feature Wendy’s unique skill in playing viola and singing. Wendy’s hosting a fundraising campaign over at indiegogo for the duration of this next month to cover all costs of recording and production. Please check it out and consider pitching in if you can!

I’m very happy to share the premiere performance by Emily Green of some new piano music from this past December. I became infatuated with Domenico Scarlatti’s huge corpus of Sonatas a few years ago, and these two pieces are a tribute of sorts to the master. Please click here to take a listen and read more. Emily did an amazing job with this music at the premiere, and we’re hoping to make a studio recording this summer.

One of my projects this past year was a new solo cello piece for Dan Shomper. Vox Animarum is the result, and you can listen to it below.
