  1. First post here, this is an orchestra work I did a while back as an ode to Virginia (My home state) it takes you through various regions of the state such as the Tidewater, the Appalachians, the Blue Ridge, and the Shenandoah valley. I was inspired to write this when hearing the intro for Appalachian Spring by Copland. I remember our teacher saying it was meant to capture a morning in the Appalachian Mountains (where my family is from), and thinking to myself that Copland nailed it, but I wanted a piece that would do the same for the whole of Virignia (Or at least parts of it). I sought to emulate this in the beginning of the piece. The piece concludes with my take on Oh, Shenandoah. A river that rolls through Virginia which I spent many summers on. Let me know what you think, and yes I know the score is horribly engraved.
  2. Hi all! Here's a short exercise I did working on mixing and balancing. I studied music education, not composition or technology, so mixing/etc. is an unfamiliar field for me. I'm getting some rough, almost static-like noises mixed in with my sounds - especially at the beginning and ending. Does anyone know what would cause that or how I could eliminate it? I used panning and equalization, mostly, does that help to clean up some of the "clashing frequencies"? Let me know, I'm trying to train my ear to hear these things. Thanks!
