Note: This list contains only pieces which have already been performed and are readily available. All music can be borrowed or purchased from the Canadian Music Centre unless otherwise indicated. Contact the CMC at 20 St. Joseph St., Toronto, Ontario, CANADA M4Y 1J9 or (416) 961-6601 or < cmc@gold.interlog.com >. For those who can read Finale files, e-mail ME at < jarmstro@aix1.uottawa.ca> and I will send you a score FREE OF CHARGE (except for published scores obviously). Like most composers, almost all of my royalty money comes from performing rights; the more people that perform my music, the more money I make! If I can e-mail you a score, I'm happy to do it.
