This work was created from a story entitled "The Confession" that I wrote in 1989. In Spanish originally, it was translated into Hebrew, French, English and German. Some of these texts in different languages have been integrated into the work. "Confession" records the psychological oscillations - from mental stability to madness or vice versa - that the protagonist goes through. "The Confession" of the human voice, the electronic instruments (synclaiver), the acoustic instruments (harp, trombone, cello, flute, percussion) and the concrete sounds create a semantic interaction with the syntax of the musical language.

Recording of Alcides Lanza's Un Mundo Imaginario, for choir, with electronic and computer sounds. The text is taken from ekphonesis V [1979], from Alcides lanza's Trilogy. The bilingual aspects of the text has been preserved. By means of syllabic and phonemic fragmentation - both in the studio for the creation of the tape part, and in the writing for the choir. The sounds on tape bring certain vocal qualities into focus and extend the choral material. The instruments used for the production of the tape were Sennheisser MD421 microphopnes, Revox A77 and DAT tape recorders, Akai S900 sampler, Macintosh SE computer with Sound Designer, plus Lexicon and Yamaha special effects units. The tape was realized at the SHELAN Studios and finalized at the EMS, McGill University. Premiered by Iwan Edwards and the McGill Concert Choir at Pollack Hall, November 16, 1989. Written at the request of choir conductor Iwan Edwards and dedicated to him.

Recording of Lewis Nielson's The hero/the martyr/thefool.

Recording of JoAnn Kuchera-Morin's A Walk Through Ezra Pound's Canto 90. This is a single movement work for soprano solo, two sopranos, two altos, and computer generated tape. In the text of the Canto, Pound incorporates Latin, English, Chinese and Greek, in order to describe the visual imagery of the poem which begins with a quote from Richard of St Victor. The computer-generated portion of the work is composed of both synthesized sounds and sampled, processed sounds from a collection of Chinese instruments.

Recording of Barry Truax's Beauty and the Beast. This work is for narrator who also plays oboe d'amore and English horn, computer images, and two computer soundtracks. The computer graphic images and text were created by Theo Goldberg. This is a modern retelling of the traditional story of a young girl's voyage of self-discovery through her encounter with the Beast in the enchanted castle. This version of the story is a modern interpretation as suggest by Bruno Bettelheim in his 1976 book The Uses of Enchantment. Beauty and the Beast was commissioned by oboist Lawrence Cherney for the Musical Mondays series of young people's concerts, with the assistance of the Laidlaw Foundation and the Music Section of the Canada Council.
