Johanna's Theme

Tragedy at the Masquerade

Johanna's Reprise (Stinger)

Diegetic piano music for UoY Drama Society's production of Chekov's 'The Seagull (DIR: Ruby Large and James Pennington). The piece is a bittersweet Romantic-style Waltz which exemplifies Konstantin’s emotional anguish when his desired affection or approval isn’t received. It is used at the start of the play when his play's premiere is ill-received, and near the end shortly before he ends his own life.

Konstantin's Waltz

Diegetic music composed for the UoY Drama Society's production of 'The 39 Steps' (DIR: Tommy Haines). The theme is used within the context of a 1930s West End show and is written to accentuate the eccentric but astonishing nature of Mr Memory.

Mr Memory Theme

Chase music composed for the UoY Drama Society's production of 'The 39 Steps' (DIR: Tommy Haines). Written for brass and strings, I took inspiration from film soundtracks from the 30s and 40s.

The Great Chase

A compilation of electronic pieces that explore mid twentieth century retrofuturism. These pieces use production and compositional techniques from musique concrète, elektronische Musik and - to some extent - cosmic jazz.

While the first three tracks are refined and structured pieces, the final two are studies that showcase the different production techniques.

Calibration

Unused ambient music for the UoY Drama Society's production of 'Kreuzfeuer' (WRIT/DIR: Evie Gallagher). The piece was written to accompany the show's preset and involves haunting strings and mutating synthetic textures.
