     Raucousy was written in 2014 and premiered at the University of Northern Colorado in April of 2015 by the Majority Percussion quartet: Mario Alvarado, Joe Darpino, Cara Givan, and Tyler Vandermeer.
 
     Born from a very common phrase from our dear professor, Gray Barrier (who himself learned it from Cloyd Duff), Raucousy is about bringing the edge out with percussion, which wasn't much of a challenge. The challenge comes from adapting from various different styles.

     New Irish Stew is a graphic score written in early 2016 and premiered in April of the same year. The piece is written for three indeterminate musicians and two narrators.
 
     The score is written in a literal circle with no beginning or ending given. It is up to the performers to decide where to start, when to end, what tempo, and if they wish, when to improvise.
