Is That a Weed In My Fescue?!

I always have this list of movies that I want to see or can't wait to see.  Right now it's at record length.

Let's see, there's:

1) Inception

2) Robin Hood

3) Despicable Me

4) Toy Story 3

5) Tangled

6) The Voyage of the Dawn Treader

7) Batman Begins

8) The Dark Knight (Yeah, I havent seen either of these, although I did see the Prestige which was pretty awesome)

There's more, but I can't think of them at the moment.

I've been working on some pretty awesome music these days.  I should post it on my music blog (which by the way I am making some changes to) sometime around here.

Just saw this:

A Little Ditty

So, just the other day I was playing around and came up with this little melody.  I took it a few steps further by adding a few more harmonizing melodies, arranged it for a small orchestra, and, tada!  I might use it in something eventually, maybe a single movement work for the orchestra.  It almost has that "Symphonic Italian" sound if you know what I mean.  I have a recording you can listen to here.

Also, I have a few other songs in making right now.  Hope to post (sometime) in the near future.

Two Compositions

So, I recently finished up two of my compositions (see title). 

The first composition was one I had started back in November.  It had really been a kind of exercise I had set up for myself to get my crative juices flowing again after being in a session of dryness in composing.  Anyhow I had put it on hold for awhile (my creative juices had got flowin' so well from my exercise I couldn't stay on one project) and just recently finished it up.  Here is A Short Scene of the Mountains.

The next composition was also a sort of exercise, but more recent.  I guess when you're kind of green in composition anything new is an exercise :).  I had never composed much action/suspense music and wanted to try my hand at it.  So here is Flight to the Mountains (what is it with me and and my songs including the word "mountain"?).

Enjoy.
