I've finally posted the scores below as regular Finale .mus files.  
You can download and install the free
<A HREF="http://www.finalemusic.com/NotePad/Default.aspx">Finale NotePad</A> application
to view and print these files.  
<A HREF="contact.html">Let me know</A> if you have any problems.

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
For a long time these scores were unviewable, 
as Finale changed the format for their on-line music viewer one too many times.
Back in 2000 I upgraded to Finale 2001 strictly for the online music viewing functionality,
but it never really worked right, and it was super clunky compared to what
their 
<A HREF="http://www.sibelius.com/home/index_flash.html">competition</A>
was doing.
I'm not doing a lot of traditionally noted music these days, 
but if I ever decide to upgrade again, it won't be to 
Finale!

&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;
Some of my liturgical music has also been published by
<A HREF="http://www.augsburgfortress.org">Augsburg Fortress</A> and is available for purchase or download.
Excerpts from my Morning and Evening Prayer settings were published in the
<A HREF="http://www.augsburgfortress.org/store/series.asp?series=67&subcategory=81"><I>Worship & Praise</I> hymnal</A> (1999)
and other works have been included in the <A HREF="http://www.renewingworship.org/">Renewing Worship</A> publications
