Above is a video of my Lux Aeterna: In Memoriam CoVid-19 Victims (for a cappella choir), as premiered on YouTube the N.O.W. Music & Arts Salon 2 on Thursday, July 23, 2020; performed by the OctoQuines ensemble (eight of me that is - yikes!). Completed mid May of 2020, I composed this piece with the hope of pacifying the stresses, aches and pains that WE have undergone thus far - and continue, yet still, to grapple with - amidst the CoVid-19 pandemic, globally. I do hope that this musical offering brings some semblance of hope and peace to those suffering and those who have lost their loved ones. May 2021 bring us all good fortune.

"Princess Nicotine" is a short comedy film in public domain made and produced by J. Stuart Blackton and Albert S. Smith in 1909. It is one of the first to cleverly incorporate camera tricks on film! Music includes a re-imagination of "Creep" (originally written by Radiohead and arranged/orchestrated for string orchestra by composer Raul Salamanca Quines). As well, included is an excerpt from "Back on Mars" (a tribute-piece to David Bowie) for string orchestra, also by Raul Salamanca Quines.
