Requiem

Well, actually I haven't fallen off the face of the earth. For the past few weeks I have been completely absorbed in one musical task: making an electronic arrangement of Mozart's Requiem. If you're not familiar with the original music, take a little time at some point to research it. The following is only an arrangement of the instrumental parts; some day I hope to find people who sing to add the vocals. Enjoy!

Introitus from Mozart's Requiem arranged by....well, me.

Canon in D


This is a recording my piano teacher made of one of my favorite pieces of music, Pachelbel's Canon in D.
I have actually spent the past three hours or so trying to do multiple tasks at once, one task of which was to compose a new piece for this blog. I don't know why, but everything I am doing, no, attempting, creatively these days starts out great, but ultimately ends up being a waste of time. I hopes it's just a drought. I've had times like this before and inspiration always seems to find me.

Enjoy the music!

Freestyle no.1 in D minor


My version of a freestyle. Just call me the Li'l Wayne of the piano (actually, don't call me that). Enjoy,

Freestyle no.1 in D minor

Thanks to the small, scrappy band of those who thoughtfully clicked the 'follow' button for this blog. I enjoy writing, but it is through my music that I truly and most sincerely express myself.

The picture? The great 19th century Hungarian pianist, Franz Liszt, performing in the company of peers.

Prelude in F minor

This began as a Nocturne, music to relax and dream by as evening slowly pulls her veil over the earth. But, somewhere, somehow, things took a surprising turn, and the piece became the Prelude to, well, I'm not exactly sure what.

Prelude in F minor

Ah, so many ideas, so little time...

The Inferno


A musical vision. I don't know what it means. I just know that, when it's over, there is nothing left but the ruins of a once mighty empire. Listen and download here.

The Inferno

It's pouring rain again. I love it.
