Influences
I like anything original that displays creative and technical musicianship with high sound quality. Most of what I compose is instrumental and strives to evoke strong emotions. My favourite composers include Hans Zimmer, Claude Debussy, and metal bands like Sikth and Killswitch Engage.

Menuet de Famille
Menuet de FamilleA tranquil melody capturing the essence of family, young and old. The first 2/3 of this piece were originally written for piano, cello, contrabass, celesta, and harpsicord. The last third of the piece was completed years later, and nearly 7 years passed from its initial musings to the final piece. It is meant to have a deeply layered, dreamy, lullaby feel with unexpected interruptions using arpeggios to achieve a more complex dynamic tone. For me, what I have accomplished with the experimentation I undertook with arpeggiated chords really gives this piece character and a sense of completeness. Structurally, the piece is made up of 3 distinct sections characterized by tranquility, conflict, and resolution all within the context of familial relationships. Of the few pieces I have released thus far, this one is by far my favourite and I am most satisfied with it's development of my composing abilities.
