Contessa - Part I

The Distances Between

A musical journey from idyllic beginnings, through challenges, good times and trouble, ending with an epic fanfare... Hobbit style. 

A Big Adventure

This is an instrumental piece I am writing to release as the next song in my Online Music Series. It symbolizes struggle, sacrifice, and the light that we all (or at least most of us) hope is at the end of the tunnel.  I dedicate this to my dad, George Morton Levy, who taught me about the light at the end of the tunnel before he passed away when I was five.

Thank you all for listening. May you find your own light!

Sneak Peek: The Light at the End

Journey

The Whole Wide World Opening Titles

A very dark film trailer for an alien invasion movie. Electronic samples chopped and twisted into epic mayhem.

No Escape

A rich orchestral piece that tries to portray the Golden Age of cinematic filmscores. Reminiscent of John Williams and Erich Wolfgang Korngold, it builds from an enchanting Disney-like feel to a full epic theme, ending in glorious brass fanfares typical of this classic style.

Movies & Make Believe

Orchestral, with Piano and acoustic guitar - A lively piece with an epic conclusion.

Themes & Variations

Retro electronica, with classic catchy hooks, reminiscent of Vangelis and Jarre. 

Voyager

Majestic romantic orchestral themes, with piano, classical guitar, and some regimental drums and bagpipes.

Symphonique

Small World

Let's go find the storm
Search for dark skies
Fly into the clouds that are shrouding you
Break into the cage 
Face the monsters
You can set them free
And end the heartbreak

Behind those eyes
A thousand stories lie
Unfolding in your own small world
Your life betrays
The plans that you once made
Headlines in your own small world

The camera always lies
Always false smiles
An image of your life where emotions die
History is blind 
To your patience 
It just hears romance in your silence

Behind those eyes
A thousand stories lie
Unfolding in your own small world
Your life betrays
The plans that you once made
Headlines in your own small world
