On July 18, 2007, the artist completed a draft outline for an expansive new composition project titled “The Armageddon Overtures.” Focusing on the final day of life on earth before “the end of time,” this massive suite for full orchestra and choir was completed in February 2008.

Prologue
Before the end of time
before the ultimate battle between good and evil
before Judgment Day
before the cessation of existence
there will be one final day…
one more chance to say goodbye
one more fleeting moment to contemplate the deeper truths of life
one more opportunity to breathe in the air
to watch the sun rise and set
to count the stars…
… and one more hour to dream about all that was …
… and is …
… and could have been …
… and is to come …
this is the last day of life on earth
the end of suffering
the beginning of hope
the final dying gasp of humanity
the sudden realization of squandered moments and shattered dreams
the greatest burden of agony and loss ever experienced
and the ultimate ecstasy of liberation from mortality…
…… this is ……
…… the end ……
…… and the beginning ……
