Posted on September 13, 2022

Another recent orchestral piece. This piece has got pep.

Day 69: “Somewhere Other Soundscape” (Original Music)

Posted on September 9, 2022

Day 62: “Joy the Incessant” (Original Music)

Posted on September 2, 2022

One of the joys of working with Logic is trying orchestral textures. This is one such piece. I wanted something dramatic and rhythmic. The opening is a little somber, but then it…

Posted on September 1, 2022

Posted on August 10, 2022
