I wrote these miniatures over several years in the cracks of time between more imposing projects. While of varying length and difficulty, they are simple enough to be performed by young or novice pianist and sufficiently enticing to interest professionals. They are often intimate glimpses into my sketchbook’s collection of riffs, leftovers, and loose ends — too modest for large-scale composition, but too inviting and enjoyable to be kept from the world.

While organised in their chronological order of composition, I invite performers to excerpt or rearrange them to their liking. Each miniature presents a stark, often humorous character or mood strongly correlated to its title.
