Brooke's
CD, “Waves of Stone,” is now available on the INNOVA label and on the Naxos listening library. Included on the CD are six chamber music pieces, composed
between 1994 – 2008.
A new recording by the Luther College String Trio and pianist Miko Kominami was recently released and features Brooke's trio Laudate eum in cordis.
Brooke
appeared as a guest composer at Illinois Wesleyan University in March, 2011. Three of his chamber music were featured on a concert on March
10.
Brooke was recently awarded a commission from the Iowa Choral Directions Association. His new choral work, Si, se puede, was premiered in Mason City, IA, on July 27, 2010.
Since
2000, Brooke has served as a faculty member at the Walden
School, an outstanding
summer music program for young musicians and aspiring composers
in Dublin, NH. He is now a faculty member of the
recently-created Teacher Training Institute.
