  1. Hi, My girlfriend encoraged me to write a terror soundtrack. He loves terror movies and their soundtrack. So I took it as a challenge and try to write something a bit different from what I usually write (mainly classical music from the baroque, classical and romantic period). I found an interesting motif (the first two bar of the opening English horn). Interesting because it's quite creepy and perturbating, and at the same time I can use it in different textures, even as a fugue (min. 6, after the DB solo). I used also a lot of tremolo strings, which gives a tense background and also a couple of effects from vienna instruments librery, just in some moments. Apart from the effects that and the use of celesta, which I reserved for a couple of ethereal moments with long Bassoon/Cello pedals, It's a quite classical arrangement (Strings orchestra, oboe, english horn, bassoon, frensh horn, trumpet and SATB choir). I showed it to my girlfriend today and she was very happy for that. So I dedícate It to my girlfriend Ninon...and I hope you enjoy it as much as she did 🙂 As allways, any comments are belcome.

  2. thanks for your input. I agree that my arrangements might get a little static, I'll have to put more thought into it. Is mid 20th century tonal good or bad to you? I could keep going further into the abyss, it seems to be serving me well so far. Thank you for introducing me to greater musical flexibility

  3. Hello guys, I am totally new here and I am really impressed by discovering such an active forum with so many talents! I am really surprised, didn't know there was such a place on the web! Anyway, I am a youngish composer (31yo), I started composing around 2 years a go (but play the piano since many years). I have composed a good amount of stuff but my favourite is probably Math Piano Rock. This is inspired by Math Rock, a fast paced genre with frequent change of rythm and no lyrics (I hate lyrics!), but also Prokofiev and Bartok. The piece is *difficult*! The video below is performed by a software - but I have actually played it live a couple of times (you can see in my channel some videos where I do that, if you are interested). I am always looking to opinion, suggestions and ideas!
