compositions

by Andrea La Rose

uncle arnie works are listed by instruments involved, first solo and chamber works in some semblance of score order, then variable instrumentation, then large ensemble works.

for more information on a piece, click on the title.

many pieces have scores and parts for the downloading. the ones that don't have scores & parts still need to be edited; if you would like one of those, please email me: andrea at reloadsanear dot com. that'll light a fire under my pants to get that editing done.

i am slowly putting up recordings of selected compositions, but you'll have to search through them all to find them! mwah ha ha haaaaa...
