Go Arpeggiate Yourself

Thanks for visiting. 
What's new:  Work on my violin sonata is proceeding well.  My new symphony, "Symphony for Chamber Orchestra," is posted and waiting for you.  rjb

Scores and parts for many of my works are available from my publisher Creative Spirit Music Publications. Go to  https://www.creativespiritonline.com and select "Robert John Brooks." There, you can also follow the score while listening to a recording.

My music is fully notated and is intended for live performance by live musicians.

After completing my doctorate in composition in 1979 from UNT, I took 30 years off from composing to join the computer software revolution as a software engineer.  In 2010 I began composing again and have not stopped. So, I find myself beginning (restarting?) a composition career rather late in life...but that's OK.  Most of the works posted here were written since 2010. 

Thanks for visiting.

Take a nice long sip of cynicism with your favorite podcast hosts Timmy and Jimmy. We will talk you through only the most dismal and depraved topics in our society. Come gather round as we give long rambling answers as to the reasons why we are sad sacks. Oh, and this is primarily a comedy podcast so laugh, haha hahaha *sobs*

I didn't choose this obsession it was chosen for me unknowingly.
Lucky me no regrets.
