Film Scoring
You can find videos of
most of my film music on my YouTube
page. All of these are demos from projects I've
done at Berklee.

"Synchrony" cue (video)
This is a cue from an episode
of X-Files.
It's a creepy cue from the opening of the episode.
The
String Pads and the Piano were recorded live, and I added the
Percussion after the fact. Video only on this one for now.
"Goodbye" cue (video)
From the pilot episode of Alias, this sad cue
takes place at the funeral of the main character's fiance. The cue was
recorded live with a Violinist, Pianist, and a couple of players on
String Pads.
"Dead Yet" cue (video)
This cue is from the movie Advice
and Dissent,
and consists of a MIDI string quintet with the 1st violin and the bass
parts played live. The cue basically consists of the
main character coming home hoping to find his wife dead, because of a
mysterious curse supposedly put on her by a Rabbi (it's a long story).
In any case, it's kind of a quirky cue, somewhere in between
klezmer and comedic-suspense.
"The Attic" cue (video)
This cue is from an episode of Providence,
and was recorded with a live ensemble I conducted consisting of 2
violins, a flute, an upright bass, a vibraphone and a synthesizer with
a violin section patch. The woman in the scene is looking around in an
attic,
basically hoping to come across proof of an old affair her father may
have had with a woman who has just re-entered his life. It's
another quirky suspense cue, kind of in a Monk-like style.
"Forest Floor" cue (video)
A cue from a nature movie. MIDI piano.
Civil-War Movie Music
This is score I wrote for an imaginary
scene as my Orchestration final
project. You could imagine it being set during the Civil War,
and has reflections of the scores of Glory and Cold Mountain. The scene
itself has multiple parts. It begins
focused on a careworn woman going about her days chores, wistfully
dreaming of her husband, then cuts to a battle where her husband is
fighting on the losing confederate side, from which he has a
suspenseful escape before we cut to another scene of him emerging from
a forest to greet his love.
Rainy Day Music
This is a simple one which is a mockup for a "Rainy Day" type of scene. It's done up in Digital Performer using instruments from Reason.
Love Theme
A MIDI recorded simple love theme.
Sad Theme
A sadder theme, based off a motif given
in class. Again MIDI.
Motif Arrangement
An orchestration of another students
motif from the previous project. More MIDI.
Classical
Piano Sonata 1, Mvt.
I
Minulette and Trio, + Fugue
Piano Sonata material
A sonata-form piece I composed for my
girlfriend's birthday.
Minulette and Trio, + Fugue
A minuet and trio with a little bit of a
fugue I began work on tacked on.
Piano Sonata material
Some more sonata-based material, maybe
for a mvt. IV?
Rock
Trippolette
This
is a tune I created for the first Guitar Hero, derived from my Advanced
Modal Harmony final
project
at Berklee. It ended up getting cut at the last minute, but
using
a Gameshark-type device I've managed to hack it back into the game, and
the code had been officially published by these devices since then. You
can find out more information on my trippolette
page.
Jazz
Sublimation
of Memory
A little jazz tune I threw together in
garageband a few years back, with a live bass and guitar and garageband
drums and sax.
