Human playback of this piece coming soon!
The Ancient Mariner’s Tale (2021)
Based on text from Samuel Taylor Coleridge’s poem The Rime of the Ancient Mariner, The Ancient Mariner’s Tale is written in 6/8 to imitate the feel of an old English sea shanty. Soprano glissandos sounding like the wailing of sailors stuck in the storm blast and shouting from the chorus to inspire images of this story being told at some place like a bar are only a few of the elements included in this piece to create a fun and compelling work for both the performers and audience.
Playback of this piece coming soon!
Aenon (2022)
Aenon is a piece written for a string quartet. The piece focuses on the absence/simplification of sound, stripping the piece down to one or two instruments, then gradually building it up to the full ensemble before cutting the ensemble back once again.
This piece is in its final drafting phase, scheduled to be finished by Summer 2023
The brief for this film score class assignment was as follows:
“For this scene, we are looking for a more natural tone in the music to reflect the flowing images. We really enjoy music by Hans Zimmer but also love the quietness and intimacy of Icelandic composer Olafur Arnalds. Piano and strings would be a great start for instrumentation, as they carry deep emotional range as well as darker tones but we encourage the use of other organic instruments as well. We’d love to see the music build with the picture and change in feel when the scene picks up in pace. We want the music to flow like water: it can be still but changing all in one moment.”
