Sweet Reverie

Sweet Reverie by Shirley Ly | Violin and Piano Duet

Swallows swoop in the sunset. We see their strong, deep wingbeats at a distance. A storm amounts. Clouds are thick and swallows lose their senses of direction in the darkening skies. Raindrops batter their wings. 

The clouds disperse and the swallows emerge slowly and cautiously to find their way back to their warm clay nests.

Hello fellow music addicts!

I love to listen to every kind of good music. Good music for me should be unique in its rhythm, harmonies, sounds or interpretation. Good music should captivate the listener from the first note on and never let him go until the last.

I write my own music in a mostly contemporary classical style, which is inspired by the great composers from the past as well as from the 20th century (like Prokofiev, Shostakovich, Strawinsky, Bartók, Strauss, Eisler and many more).

I'm looking for artists, who want to interpret my music. I send sheet music for free to anybody in the world, who is interested in performing my music live on stage, in studio, in your music class or anywhere. The only condition I have is, that you record it in any possible way, so I can hear your interpretation.

I hope my music captivates you as it captivates me.

There's a nice youtube tutorial on orchestration approach by Thomas Goss, I highly recommend to watch.

For me it makes perfect sense, what Thomas says.
