This is a string arrangement of the piano piece "Elfin Dance" by Edvard Grieg.  I know, it's not the whole piece, but this is all we were to do for our assignment.  It's my first time playing with strings, so let me know what you think.

Elfin Dance - Edvard Grieg (Strings Arr. segment)

This is a project from my Orchestration class of the first part of Number 150 from Bartok's "Mikrokosmos".  I wanted to focus on the eery quality inherent in the irregular meter here.  Let me know what you think.

Mikrokosmos No. 150 - Bela Bartok (Stgs & WW Arr. segment)

This is a simple arrangement I made for a friend and her church choir.  Nothing about this is supposed to be difficult or ostentatious, merely a simple arrangement of these two songs together.

Joy to the World / O Come All Ye Faithful - Arr.

Another project from school.  This time we were supposed to orchestrate for a near full orchestra.  Again, let me know what should be tweaked.

Sunken Cathedral - Claude Debussy (Segment - Arr.)

I finally started fiddling around again and this is about half of a new song that's started coming to mind.  Let me know what you think so far and please forgive the playing. :)

This is an arrangement of the classic Christmas carol that my beginning choir will be singing this year.  I didn't want to do too much to the melody or harmonies because they're so classic, but let me know what you think.  I'm kind of proud of it.

Ding! Dong! Merrily On High!

This is a preview of a song idea that came to my mind this weekend.  It's a rough preview, but I haven't actually notated anything yet.  Hopefully I'll be able to post a finished product later this month or next.

Call Me (Preview)

This is a piano solo arrangement of one of my favourite hymns.  Again, since this is just a MIDI file, there are some articulations missing (especially ritardandos).  If anyone is willing to help out, please let me know!

In Humility, Our Saviour - Arrangement

This is a new choral piece I just barely finished - I can't believe it took me so long!  Please let me know what you think of it since I'm not above altering things that aren't working.  Since this is just a MIDI file, if you want the lyrics check out my blog.

If I should die

Sorry this is so rough, but it's been a while since I've played around on the piano and started writing some new stuff.  I'm not the best when there's no sheet music in front of me, so apologies for the awkward pauses and missteps.  Eventually I will write lyrics for it.  Let me know what you think of the skeletal ideas of the song.

Someone to Watch Over You

Amateur composer with a degree in music from Utah State University.  Please let me know what you think of my pieces because I want to improve and know what could change as well as what's working.  Thanks!
