"Webernesque" is comprised of four short studies in atonality, using compositional techniques inspired by Anton Webern, including 12 tone, extreme range of pitch and dynamics, and rhythmic upheaval. The last movement is basically a musical palindrome. 

"Webernesque" was premiered in Baton Rouge, Louisiana in 1985 and then toured through Louisiana, Texas, and Florida.
