Two Pieces for Orchestra (2024)

I am a British composer, who has studied composition privately with British composer Peter Nickol https://www.impulse-music.co.uk/peternickol/ (although I am largely self-taught). I have also studied piano (privately) with concert pianist Ekaterina Shetliffe. 
My music contains elements of impressionism, and musical modernism; I have also explored 12-tone composition. Recently, my focus has been on learning quartal harmony!

Composers who have influenced me include Schumann, Chopin, Schoenberg, and Ligeti; however my formative musical inspiration is the music of Debussy.

I've had a passion for music since I was a child, but I wasn't really trained, so I chose a different career path. Nevertheless, at some point I decided to take the ongoing creative pressure within me seriously, even if I can't deliver a professional performance.
Maybe one or two songs will resonate or encourage you to express yourself musically.

Seit Kindheit habe ich eine Leidenschaft für die Musik, aber nicht so richtig ausgebildet, deshalb auch beruflich anderen Weg gewählt. Dennoch habe ich mich irgendwann entschieden,  den anhaltenden kreativen Druck in mir ernst zu  nehmen, auch wenn ich keine professionelle Performance liefern kann. 
Vielleicht stößt der eine oder andere Song ja auf Resonanz oder regt an, sich einmal selbst musikalisch mitzuteilen.

We heart pyro and music!

Sjonkel Rolfsen is a vinyl enthusiast and music collector from Trondheim in Norway. He has been welding records at local venues and events for two decades. Nowadays, he mostly enjoys to fiddle around with experimental and ambient in the comfort of his humble abode, but still get the odd epiphany to wonder out into the enchanting world of house and techno. When he is not fumbling about on the decks, he likes to travel. He tries to play with the possibility of combining electronica and leftfield soundscapes, in a mixcast friendly way, catering to your everyday soundtrack needs.

I started my musical journey at the age of five, initially composing music with tablature taught by my father. Beginning with the penny whistle and violin, I played in our family band, busking on the streets of Bath.

Our travels across the country inspired compositions like "Road to Wareham." Music became my sanctuary, especially after being diagnosed with Asperger's syndrome. In college, under mentors such as Dr. Rick Birley, Dr. Richard Hall, and Dr. Julie Trevett, I honed my skills in composition, theory, and piano, transitioning to formal music notation using Sibelius.

Today, I compose for film, video games, and theatre. My music, influenced by my diverse experiences, aims to evoke emotion and tell stories.

Thank you to my followers and listeners for your support. I hope you continue to enjoy and share in my musical journey.
