Composing method: Two ostinati were composed and played into a music sequencer. A dozen or so music fragments were composed to be played along with either one or the other ostinati. The composing process included de
I am new to Composer's Forum and eager to begin to share my work with other musicians. One of my latest pieces is a new five movement symphony based on our sun's current solar maximum. The five movements are titled: Solar Flares, Solar Corona, Solar
Here is a piece I wrote back in 2020 for brass quintet: Prelude and Fugue - (real original title, eh?) While I am certainly not a great "contrapuntalist", I did enjoy writing this one! I hope you will enjoy listening to it as well.
I hope this is not too much too soon, but I'd love to hear from you folks what you think of a piece of mine based on African folk tunes, that I call Come Africa 2. (Yes, there is a Come Africa 1 as well.)
Here's another recent work of mine, a lighthearted contrast to the brooding fugue in E minor, this one is full of relentless energy and fun. Perhaps a little too relentless, I've been told. Pacing is one area I need to work on, in future works. :-D

Hello all! Hope this week finds you well. Recently, I was inspired by the incredibly unique soundtrack of Marvel's Loki series. Throughout the soundtrack there are plenty of unique and wacky sounds, but the one sound that has stuck with me most was t
Good afternoon, fellow people of the forum! Today I bring a song I actually made over the past hour and a half. I have titled it "The Dark Lord Dances". In this I really tried to keep things going where normally I incorporate a slower section. While
For piano, drumkit, bongos, guitar, organ. Length here is five minutes, but in a performance venue the piece allows for improvised soloing and would be extended. Inspired by Ahmad Jamal.
Three cacophonous cheers for Kristofer for getting CF rolling again!
