SCORES
All of these scores are freely available, though entirely optional payment (pay-what-you-like) via the "donate" button (paypal) or small regular donation via Patreon is appreciated, and helps me keep making these things. Alternatively, consider donating to Medical Aid for Palestinians or Youth Music.
Please get in touch if you're interested in playing anything (or have any questions)—you don't need my permission or input in order to play my music, but I'd be glad to know.
