156 - In The Wake Of A Whispered Spark

Hello, 
I'm a self-taught composer, still discovering my musical identity, step by step.
I've been on SoundCloud for almost two years now, and this platform allows me to discover incredibly talented people. I'm immensely proud and grateful to everyone who's interested in my work.
Thank you for your support and encouragement, and thank you to everyone I interact with here for their support, it's very inspiring.

I wish everyone the very best !

Thanks for visiting. 
What's new:  I have completed my violin sonata. It is posted first in line to your left.  My new symphony, "Symphony for Chamber Orchestra," is posted and waiting for you.  rjb

Scores and parts for many of my works are available from my publisher Creative Spirit Music Publications. Go to  https://www.creativespiritonline.com and select "Robert John Brooks." There, you can also follow the score while listening to a recording.

My music is fully notated and is intended for live performance by live musicians.

After completing my doctorate in composition in 1979 from UNT, I took 30 years off from composing to join the computer software revolution as a software engineer.  In 2010 I began composing again and have not stopped. So, I find myself beginning (restarting?) a composition career rather late in life...but that's OK.  Most of the works posted here were written since 2010. 

Thanks for visiting.

Del Carry is a composer and musician who plays contemporary classical, film music, jazz and some rock and blues. He plays piano, Bb trumpet, C flute, EWI wind controller, guitar [electric and acoustics and a wide range of virtual sampled instruments as well as having played in a few jazz-rock "Chicago" type live bands]. The pieces offered on SoundCloud are a very small sample of over 450 compositions.

If you are so inclined, I would also encourage any constructive criticism of my music. If my music does not fit in your musical taste and experience, it’s probably not wise to comment, but if it does, and you notice obvious things that I have overlooked or I could do better, I am open. It does not take long to lose one’s objectivity when hearing the piece possibly hundreds or times. 

But please be kind. I may not always agree, but will appreciate your effort, care and feedback.

Tonal Drift is the solo project of producer/composer Mark Hollomon mostly focusing on Melodic Ambient and nearby genres.

Welcome to my SoundCloud page.  It serves as a jar of sorts, to catch the musical ideas flying around in my head!  My hope is that you find something to listen to that offers encouragement and refreshes your soul.

All music is original with a few exceptions (such as new arrangements of old Christmas songs, etc.).  All music has been composed and performed with absolutely no AI-assistance.  I primarily perform and record on the Yamaha MODX8, with an occasional recording on my older Yamaha Clavinova.  You will also find collaborative works on my page, featuring some other amazing musicians on SoundCloud.

It is a joy to share my music with you, and I hope you enjoy listening!

Stefan Kraft creates cinematic orchestral music that bridges classical tradition with modern emotional storytelling.

"Hi there, I’m Stefan Kraft – a German composer creating cinematic orchestral music that bridges classical tradition and modern emotional storytelling.

My works move between film score, neo-classical, and ambient sound worlds – driven by piano, lush strings, and detailed orchestral textures. Each piece aims to tell stories that words can’t, capturing both beauty and quiet intensity in sound.

My style is often compared to composers like Thomas Newman, James Newton Howard, or Rachel Portman – emotional yet refined, with a focus on harmony, texture, and atmosphere.

I believe music can reach places that logic can’t – and that’s why I write. If you’re drawn to cinematic soundscapes filled with warmth, melancholy, and a sense of wonder, you might feel at home here.

So grab your headphones and join me on a journey somewhere between classical elegance and cinematic emotion."
