Naked With Chocolate (2010) (5 min.) For 2 Solo Sopranos and Mixed Chorus (SSSAATTBB) with Keyboard

Spavač Mettā (2009) (15 min.) for solo tuba, string orchestra, and percussion.

Tuba Concerto in one movement. Spavač means "dream" in Serbian and the Buddhist practice of Mettā means loving-kindness.

The tubist exists within a dreamy, placid world, but jolts of extreme energy and power risk a break of concentration.

A Welcome Rain One Spring Night (2008) (6 min.) for string orchestra.

Commissioned by the Atholton High School Chamber Orchestra of Columbia, Maryland.

Swaggering Swaggerer (2007) (3.5 min.) for full orchestra.

Bite! (2007) (10 min.) for Bb trumpet, tenor sax, violin, cello, piano, double bass, and drum set.

A mix of jazz and classical.

Circus for Cynics (2005) (12 min.) for Bb clarinet, bassoon, and two percussionists.

Each of the five movements follows a different performer of a failing circus troop.

Testimonies of Tajomaru and Murdered Man (2004) (4.5 min.) for Bb clarinet and bassoon.

Swaggering Swaggerer (2004) (2 min.) for baritone and piano.
