List of Compositions by James Householder

From Young Composers
Jump to: navigation, search

"I created this list on Young Composers more as a benefit to myself so I could track my own progress and compositional direction over time, and also to show others what my complete list of composed music might look like. It is by most means complete and lists almost every scrap of music I've written if up to date." - James Householder, composer.

Complete Listing by Index Number

Works are hereby divided into four categories, the most recent and mature, the earliest, those that fall between, and those that have no place among the others.

Listing by Date

This list still utilizes opera as opposed to index numbers. This is due to the composer's laziness and lack of desire to convert all items to IN. and current opus listing formats.
