He’s in Pittsburgh this week to promote his composition “Satan’s Fall,” a commissioned work for large chorus to be performed by the Mendelssohn Choir of Pittsburgh, for which he is serving as composer-in-residence. The world premiere of “Satan’s Fall” will be performed Feb. 7 and 8, 2020, at the newly restored Roxian Theatre in McKees Rocks.
