Victory [Original Mockup]

Hearthwood Village

Hearthwood Village (Chamber Orchestra Version)

Only truth, love and guts
It’s all we’ve got
When all wears off, honeymoon drugs
It’s scary as fuck

But we do it anyway 
Yeah, we’ll choose it 

There’s no going back from whence we came

Come on sweet, muscadine dream
Tend this hearth, you know what I mean
If you lose your self in doubt
Concentrate on my candied mouth

As I sing us into a memory
Lovers floating on an ancient sea

Moving in unison
Remaining sovereign

From Whence We Came

This is a song created from a chant written by Evan Hodkins of the School of Alchemy. Check out Evan's talks on Spotify, Youtube and Pandora. He's a mystifyingly mischievous and wise teacher and scholar!

Evan's chorus: 
Peace to my brothers
Peace to my sister's
Peace to the world 
Peace to my soul
Om Shanti Om!

I wrote and added additional verses.

When I was writing this composition I had a specific storyline in mind...

0:00 There's a large battle taking place; struggle, fighting, steel clashing against steel. 
0:50 We find our hero valiantly fighting enemies all around and they are succeeding. 
1:20 Then something takes them by surprise and they're struck down. They're discouraged and the end seems near. 
1:42 It would be easy to give up, but a spark within their heart sets their will alight and they gather their strength and get back on their feet. 
2:20 They fight with renewed strength and determination and the enemy is ultimately defeated. 
2:56 As the army embarks on the journey home there's a feeling of peace and accomplishment. 
3:46 Upon arriving home the hero's victory becomes the victory of the whole community and a joyful and triumphant ceremony takes place. Love prevails. 

Meditation/Visualization Exercise:

Find a place you are struggling in life, could be an external thing or an internal one. As you listen to the music, imagine yourself as the hero fighting the battle against your perceived "enemy". When you're winning, feel that. When you loose hope, feel that. When you gather your strength, feel that. When you're ultimately victorious, feel that. When you return to your community and share your wisdom simply by your presence, feel that.

Hero's Journey [Orchestration Mockup]

Secret Life of Dewdrops

Victory [Orchestration Mockup]

Hero’s Victory is an original orchestral piece inspired by the classic arc of the hero’s journey — from struggle and doubt, through descent and resilience, to the ultimate emergence into triumph. It’s a piece about finding inner strength when all seems lost, and remembering the light that called you forward in the first place.

Recorded live at the legendary Synchron Stage Vienna in July 2025, this performance features a 60-piece orchestra I had the privilege of conducting during the Hollywood Music Workshop, guided by the mentorship of veteran film composer and orchestrator Conrad Pope. The video presents the final mastered track alongside immersive footage from the session.
