Here’s a video I edited from the excellent 2018 film COLD WAR for an original composition of mine called A COLD NIGHT IN MOSCOW. I don’t own the video clips ...
A short tranquil work to help calm you down in these stressful times.
"Thanks Chris,
It’s pretty lonely here at the forum these days. I haven’t been around in years and I think it’s healthy, and when we can, to take an interest in each others work. Thanks for doing so as well my friend.
Cheers,

"A lovely score. Sweet, lyrical and totally fitting Keaton’s film. I also liked the relaxed quality it had. Which didn’t over whelm but organically worked with the content. Eighteen minutes of well done wall to wall music.
Congrats."

A recent piece I composed for so many who are forever forgotten. Brought in part by the mood I'm in about this pandemic and what's to come. On the brighter s...
This is a video I've put together of original orchestral work I recently composed called 1917.A year of tumult and a turning point in the 20th century.
"I agree with your comments in particular about the over present obstinato and the mix. I need to remind myself let a project sit for a few days before I release it. I've since worked on it and it's a better piece for it. I appreciate the time you…"
"There are some lovely ideas here. I like how the melody starts simply with the flute, and the intensity picks up with the addition of the counter melodies. Unfortunately, this is overpowered by the ostinato bass. At one point I felt the counter…"
"This has an interesting mood; noble, reserved, and a bit sorrowful. I think it captures how you feel about him musically.
Compositionally, I think the bass is too dominant. It has a grinding ostinato that makes my speakers (and ears) buzz. You…"

"I like the harmonies and the orchestration, but the recurring rhythm seems to be based on a courtly dance form and this detracted from my perception of Valhalla as a place of great warriors. One suggestion, FWIW, is to rework the rhythm into…"

Dance of the clowns was very well written, although I wouldn't associate that mood with clowns. Well done.
I appreciate your compliments on my choral music. I'm hoping to assemble an octet of classically trained vocalists to perform and record A Dawn Never Ending this summer. It would be nice not to have to hear a virtual performance of my music. ;)
