He is in continual demand for new commissions, and his music has and continues to be performed on all six inhabited continents. His work is published primarily by MMB Music, Inc. and Musik Fabrik (orchestral/instrumental music) and Wayne Leupold Editions, Inc. (organ/choral music) Recordings of Cooman's music appear on over seven record labels, and his music appears in the collections of most music libraries in the United States. Cooman's primary composition studies have been with Bernard Rands, Judith Weir, Alan Fletcher and James Willey. As an active concert organist, Cooman specializes exclusively in the performance of new music. Over 120 new works have been composed for him by composers from around the world, and his performances of the work of contemporary composers can be heard on a number of CD recordings. Cooman is also a writer on musical subjects, producing articles and reviews frequently for a number of international publications. He is currently the editor of Living Music Journal and serves as an active consultant on music business matters to composers and performing organizations.

Spectrum: Concerto-Cantata
"Spectrum: Concerto-Cantata for Oboe, Chorus, and Chamber Orchestra" (2003-04) was commissioned with the support of Thomas Masterman. Elements of both concerto and cantata are present in the material and structure. The text of the work, written by Richard Leach, served as the starting point for the work's structure. The work is a "spiritual journey" of sorts, looking at seven instances of light imagery in the Bible.

The artist has designated this song as non-chartable.
