Rainy Afternoon came about through improvising on the piano imagining leaves falling to the ground. Over time though, the leaves became rain. It would work well as background music or a soundtrack. The sheet music to this piece is available too.

Fantasy Forest again came about through playing around on the piano moving to more obscure chordal choices. I think it was influenced by hearing John Williams’ Hedwig’s Theme. The image attempted through this piece is walking through an eeire forest – quirky but not scary.

Circus Fun is a playful orchestral piece. For a bit of fun I was trying to write something that would suit a cat video. I would love to have an orchestra capture this piece!

Signals Soundtrack was an entry for Heavyocity’s Foundations Scoring Competition. For this we had to write a score to Mayar Nouri’s short film “Signals” using only Heavyocity’s Foundations instruments and one other. The film itself is quite intense so I tried to capture that with giving it a fast tempo, lots of bass, boomy drums, choirs and busy strings.

Future Realisation was an entry for the Modern Composer Dojo challenge. It is a sci-fi inspired piece based on the lovely artwork stimulus shown. It is called ‘Future Realisation’ because every time I look at the picture I find a new way to interpret it.
