The Seattle-based composer Thomas Peterson passed away in winter 2006. Unfortunately, much of his work has been lost. Although Frog Peak Music has a few pieces of his (including one below), I am archiving some materials in my possession on this site as part of a general community effort to preserve his work, led by the composer David Mahler, a close friend of Tom's.

• Design on B-A-C-H. Trombone.
This is available from Frog Peak Music, but this score seems to have some pencil markings, made for the Mills Contemporary Ensemble Performance, in the early 1980s, given by Toyoji Tomita.
• Elegy and Dance. Mandoline, guitar, and harp. Part 1. Part 2.
The score is in two parts because it was too long for one .pdf file.
• Reflection for pianoforte.
• A cv that Tom sent me, early 1980s, with a list of works.
<>essay on Tom that David Mahler wrote in 2005.

• <>triptych made by David M., with a photo of Tom in it.
