Notes:

"Masquebec Tempest" was composed in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the Composition major, Bachelor of Music degree, at Oberlin Conservatory of Music. It was selected from among all graduating student's compositions to be the only score to be performed by a student orchestra at Oberlin Conservatory in 1996-97. A revised version of the score is planned for the near future (work in progress).
