This is 13 tracks of my interpretation of the Ouverture Miniature from Tchaikovsky's Nutcracker Suite. It is mastered using the Mid Side technique. The tempo is Allegro Gusto which is about 105 beats per minute. 

An overture is meant to whet the appetite of the audience for the performance and relay pieces of the performance to the audience to help them anticipate the performance to come. Unfortunately, this Overture does not whet the appetite, it dims it because, in my opinion, it is just not that great a piece of music. I did what I could, these are all the original notes included, there was just nothing I could do dress it up any more than I did. I am happy with the work, just not thrilled.

I. Ouverture Miniature

I create electronic music in the spirit of Tomita and Wendy Carlos. I also like to rock and am into Pink Floyd. I have been a user of Cakewalk since version 1.0 and currently use Reason, Cakewalk and Audacity along with a studio full of electronic instruments and effects. I play with local musicians and I work at composing electronic renditions of classical music.
