Exploring Cantilena Music
You will find my compositions and arrangements for strings and voices using the main menu above. Each composition page features a description of the piece, and either an audio file/PDF score for preview, or an embedded score video. Also included are direct links to purchase the score on Sheet Music Direct and Sheet Music Plus.
I hope you enjoy my music as much as I have enjoyed making it available!
