The piano works include Toccata & Fire Dance, ten preludes, four scherzi, six Romanian Dances, Animation Suite composed of Tin Sentinel, Clockwork Doll, Wooden Dolls (Matreshki), Goat's Dance and Flydian Galop, five mazurkas, the impressionistic work Maelstrom, Fantasy, three waltzes titled Valses, two piano sonatas and a cycle of works titled Pegasus' Travels. Related to the piano works are seven pieces published for concert harp. Cochran also wrote orchestral and chamber music including the trio for violin, cor anglais and concert harp or piano Artemis, the sextet for string quartet, oboe and bassoon Zorya Vechernyaya, the four-part orchestral work Symphonic Tale, Two Valses for symphony orchestra, the Romanian Dances for chamber orchestra, Dagda's Harp Fantasy for symphony orchestra and choral works.
