Welp, it's been a bit and I've come back with, would you look at that, a 35 minute one continuous movement piece? Never done that before, yup. But seriously, I've been working on this piece for like, 4 years? Obviously I didn't constantly work on it, between my spare time more likely. You can l... -
Here it is! The submission for the Valentine's Day Event! To say that composing this piece was a hectic process is an understatement. Heck, I'm submitting this piece on the day (or night) of the deadline! I think I was going with the joyfulness aspect of romance, with of course a little bit of...

This project took wayy longer than it should but gosh darn it it's hella worth it. It's literally my first time I've done something like this, and I thought it was okay. There w...

Hi all! I'm excited to show a new piece I was commissioned to write by a local youth orchestra: Cantus. It's not very long (5'30'') and mostly consists of a single motif tucked between melodic material and developed into a theme that is tweaked for the entire piece. As indicated by the title, I...

This is my "Elegy for String Orchestra Op. 334 'For the Victims of the Beirut Port Blast (August 4, 2020)'". The Beirut Port Blast was a great explosion - one of the largest non-nuclear explosions in history - that destroyed much of Beirut and killed more than 200 people, injured more than 6,000 peo...

An Agnus Dei in Eb minor. The skill required for the solo soprano is really high as there are sustained high notes and chromatic melodic lines, main harmony is suggested by the string orchestra. Hope you all enjoy this piece 🙂

Hello everybody! This is my latest piece, which was inspired by composers such as Arvo Pärt, Francis Poulenc and Samuel Barber. It was also a study into the use of artificial harmonics and textures. It's also important to note that the harmonics won't sound that clear in real life. Ho...

A peaceful piece for string orchestra. With long sustained chords and interesting harmonies. Hope you all enjoy it 🙂

The first (attempted) Symphony, written by the young composer, Drake King.

This is probably one of my favorite works that I’ve composed. It has some fun rhythms within the 5/4 meter, which plays into the folk like nature of the piece. I’m curious as to what story you guys come up with to go along with this work-I always like to have a storyline or plot to go with every co...

What do you think of my composition?

Hello everyone. I'm new to this forum but i'm hoping i can get some much needed help. I recently started working on my very first musical composition and it has multiple sections. The "B" section is a Waltz that preferably needs to be in E Minor. I've never written a Waltz or Classical music in gene...

A rough draft of something I wrote a while ago and never finished. As someone who has only professionally wrote for wind orchestras, and as someone who has never played a string instrument other than guitar, any and all criticism is welcome -
These are my "Two Sententiae for String Orchestra, Op. 309". It is rarely that I compose for orchestra. The last composition, a "Concertino for Classical Guitar and String Orchestra", was composed back in late 2015. I had shared it here almost two years ago. Here is its link: https://www.youngc... -
This is my first string orchestra piece that I have attempted (also for double string orchestra), and I finished it after two weeks. This can be played by one or two orchestras, and I might have this piece played by my school's string orchestra. Almost the entire piece is played in legato. My favori... -

The_Fox_and_the_Rabbit_Score.pdf The_Fox_and_the_Rabbit_Story_and_Notes.pdf musicstory.mp3 Hey guys, been a while since I posted a piece here (have some stuff in the works but this is the first thing I've finished recently). This is my submission to the Winter 2017 programmatic music... -
This is a short composition for string orchestra. Here I was attempting to be less theme-based and more stylistically like contemporary classical music, focusing more on rhythm and texture. Hope you enjoy.

A short piece for string ensemble.

I composed this Concertino for Classical Guitar and String Orchestra (in three movements), one of my more ambitious compositions, around 8 months ago. I had intended it for performance by a guitarist friend who sometimes performs with orchestras. However, that has not materialized yet. So here it is...
