This experimental electronic track is also called 'The One I Love' (she's everywhere! OMG!)

Sonnet #1

Sonnet #3; It's So Fine

A spy movie kind of soundtrack. This is #5 in the series of 'Sonnets,' which are songs-they have lyrics and soon will have vocal tracks.

Sonnet #5; Breaking The Rules Of Harmony

Felt inspired to a longer work in a definitive sonata form.

Piano Concerto No. 1 in a minor; 1st Movement

The second movement of the Piano Concerto in a minor, a modern classical work.

Piano Concerto No 1;  2nd Movement

The Finale to my first piano concerto. I have decided to call this concerto 'The Incorrigibles.' This is because I fell in with a group of incorrigibles in music school who saved me from a life of classical music.

Piano Concerto No 1 in a minor 3rd Movement

Thought I would do something a bit more chill, after the piano concerto. So this is a serenade or nocturne, if you will. The title is a play on the famous work Eine Kleine Nachtmusik, (A Little Night Music.)

A Little More Night Music Movement 1

This is the second movement of 'A Little More Night Music,' the experimental electronic serenade. I suppose this movement could be called 'Nocturne.'

A Little More Night Music Movement 2

The third movement of A Little More Night Music, UK/ happy hardcore music.

A Little More Night Music; Movement 3

This is the finale to the little four movement serenade or nocturne, if you will, called A Little More Night Music. This experimental electronic  collection has a different sort of instrumentation.

A Little More Night Music; Movement 4

It's kind of Russian, Rachmaninoff-like. I like the rhythms and the horns. It's kind of back to the short form and using key relationships rather than worrying about transitions.

Caprice Number 1

A scherzando; another name for another free form piece. This one is a quite energetic and playful progressive rock track.

Scherzando

A rondo is sort of an extended song form only instead of A B A, it kind of goes; A B A C A D and so on. This is a happy hardcore look at an old form.

Heavy Metal Rondo

What you believe is returned in the reflection, which is life.

Reflection

The first movement of a new suite of experimental electronic and synthpop music.

Electra Suite Movement 1

As I embarked on this project of creating the Electra Suite, I started reading about the character Electra to see if I wanted to go with the Greek tragedy or the Marvel character and I decided they were both the same character; she is not a happy character. The Marvel character reforms a bit but the one in the Greek tragedy just gets the Furies dancing over her. This movement is the entrance of Clytemnestra, Electra's mum, who murdered her husband Agamemnon.

Electra Suite Movement 2; 'Clytemnestra'

I finally had a revelation about this story, or the three versions of it, as they really bothered me. I came to the conclusion that ancient Greek plays were just as susceptible to propaganda and censorship as any 'modern' works. So I went with the original meaning of 'Elektra' as "the bright one."

Electra Suite Movement 3;  'How the Other Half Lives'

This synthpop track is a fitting fourth movement to the Electra Suite, inspired by the meaning of the name Electra, which means 'The Bright One.' Kind of like Uncle Fester, I guess. Well, we still have the Dance of the Furies coming up.

Electra Suite Movement 4; 'The Bright One'

This is the part of the story where Electra realizes 'you don't have to live like a refugee,' and seizes fate by the throat, so to speak. This synthpop track, as well as the other movements, reflects my own take on the story, minus the early propaganda which was introduced in the early plays. I wrote a blog post about this.

Electra Suite Movement 5 Twisting With the Fates

This is the sixth and final movement to The Electra Suite. In the original Greek play, the Furies show up and drive Electra crazy. (Symbolic of her conscience.) In this movement they show up and dance in Disco cages- If you think this is somehow different from the 'original,' -you get it!

Dance Of The Furies

Just a happy go lucky kind of art rock tune. Let's all get on that Road Trip to Venus!

Road Trip to Venus

This is the opening indie rock music track from the album '4 Good Measure.' It features two electric guitars in a sort of jazz counterpoint.

4 Good Measure

Of all the female characters that some of my compositions have invoked for me, I believe I love young Jane Clark the best. This instrumental music track is a rock version of a bluegrass standard; Old Joe Clark, and even though Joe was obviously quite daffy, he's no match for Jane.

Young Jane Clark

Electro music track from the album '4 Good Measure' by Dizzy O'Brian.

Last Train Out

Track from the album 'Charm City' by Dizzy O'Brian. This album features fusion music with a jazz leaning.This instrumental music track has three famous classical music themes that are given a jazz treatment. (And serves them right!)

Charm City

Rhapsody in Black

One of the more modern sounding works from the 'Tea with the Alien' album.

Tea With The Alien

Gradius ad Libitum

This is a re-mix of 'Chasin' Money and Bitches' by Love Ghost. Re-mix by Dizzy O'Brian.

Love Ghost Chasin' Money and Bitches re-mix by Dizzy O'Brian

Moving back into the '4 Good Measure' realm, hence playing around with E flat Dorian. Don't ask where Romanian Rhapsodies 1-8 are.

Romanian  Rhapsody No.9

Appalachian Swing has a dark ambient feel that reflects the mysteriousness of the Appalachians.

Appalachian Swing

Indie rock track Breakout No.2 is from the '4 Good Measure' album. (Don't ask where Breakout No. 1 is.)

Breakout No.2

Dizzy O'Brian's music encompasses everything from progressive rock to electro and ambient. With his imaginative coupling of acoustic and electric instruments, one might compare his sound to The Piano Guys or ELO but his music is completely Dizzy O'Brian
