Compositions

This is not an exhaustive list of all the works that I have composed until now. The list is presented here as a resource for performers who would like to find compositions to perform and information on my compositions. Those works that I suspect are worth the efforts of performers and listeners are included here. Several compositions were on my work list for some time and were then withdrawn. Compositions which are currently on this list, might also be withdrawn in future. (Here you can find more information on this matter.)

This list was last updated in August 2024.
