and he was the only composer/performer chosen to participate at the
LATIN AMERICAN CHAMBER MUSIC FESTIVAL in 2013
​ 
and is invited as a composer to attend the Radcliffe Institute for Advanced Study,
in the exploratory seminar titled,
“Defining New Directions in Latin American and Latino Concert Music.”
in 2020

below is a list of compositions he has composed for different 
ensembles he continues to concertize with in the United States and abroad
The SOUND  of the instruments resonate within each person who experiences it, 
regardless of age, background, context, culture, ethnicity, or financial status

Indoors,
outdoors,
at universities,
concert halls, 
classrooms
with danzantes, 
as a soloist, 
or with a chamber group or symphonic orchestra

The  SOUND calls everyone and brings us together,
if only for a few moments, 
and then, 
the moments gone
but never from our EXPERIENCE.................

Always a BLESSING to be invited either as a composer, performer 
or collaborator with  indigenous instruments of Mexico, Meso America
or any of my other instruments 

​
In January of 2016 he was invited to perform his original compositions for
pedal harp and indigenous instruments of Mexico and Mesoamerica
at the castle of Chapultepec with Tasha Smith Godinez in Mexico City, MX

​"I am playing my huehuetl, 
I who hunt for songs to awaken and fire our friends
whose hearts lie listless, 
for whom the day does not yet break-
those who sleep in comas, 
those who glory in gloomy night when 
the flowering dawn already sings her song
and when once again morn lightens the place where 
huehuetls play..........."
