"fzzl" (2011) for snare drum and electronics by Dan VanHassel. Performed in Boston, MA on February 27, 2016.

"Eumolpus" for speaking marimbist by Clifton Ingram. Performed on December 18, 2014 in the Commonwealth Salon at the Boston Public Library.

The composer writes: "Eumolpus is part of an ongoing project of character pieces of settings from The Satyricon, of which urrently belongs Encolpius, a solo for speaking pianist written for Andy Costello.

The composer writes: "I have written several pieces dealing with peripheral natural phenomena or humans’ fraught relationships with organic material. Silt does not attempt to allegorize our perception of the mineral world, but instead depicts the behavior of nature operating at the margins of our consciousness."
