“A Baker's Dozen” is a set of miniatures for solo harp, jointly commissioned by the Colorado State Music Teachers Association and the Music Teachers National Association for their 2022 conference.

The 13 movements of this piece can be performed in any order, either as a full set or as a smaller selection.
