@petersas: thank you! thanks for listening!

If you need cover art, Faith said let her know!

Beautiful, nice variety of instruments and synths. A good mix of timbre and nice harmonic variety :)

Really good swells, excellent rise and falls, lovely production value with a lot of dynamic head room to let the track breathe, well done!

Really interesting use of instruments.  The cover art is perfect for it.

Amazing piece of music, well orchestrated, and with an overwhelming intense expression!

Gramatik - Just Creepin'

EL SALON MEDICO (1976)
- by Michael Schelle

MINNESOTA ORCHESTRA
Sir Neville Marriner, music director and conductor

N.B.: this recording rescued just in time from an old 1/4 track reel-to-reel tape that was disintegrating!! - the sound quality here is not the greatest stereo high fidelity, for sure ... 
.

Written near the end of my studies with Aaron Copland (and intentionally imitating his iconic Americana style of "Billy the Kid" and "Appalachian Spring"), EL SALON MEDICO was my 2nd orchestral piece and dedicated to my brother Patrick (who was beginning his surgery residency at a large Dallas hospital).

This brief piece proved to be a 'one-shot-deal' in this Americana style, and was in NO WAY the harbinger of things to come for me (stylistically), - not by a long shot !! But it was a blast to work on it under the guidance of the great man. It was a thrill, and and honor, to have worked with Copland for nearly 18 months.
.

My friend, Pittsburgh composer David Stock, upon hearing the Minnesota Orchestra radio broadcast of EL SALON MEDICO (the title is, of course, a play on the Copland "El Salon Mexico") called me immediately after it ended and said:  "Schelle, dammit !!  So I'm listening to this piece on the radio and I'm thinking 'wait, I thought I knew every Copland orchestral piece there is, but I don't know this, but clearly it IS Copland, or it's a pretty good rip off".
.

Another dear friend, Columbus (OH) composer Rocky Reuter, arranged a fantastic wind ensemble version of the piece, just because he 'thought it would be a cool band piece' - and surprized me out of the blue with the score. Now THAT'S true friendship (or complete insanity). The Reuter wind ensemble version has been performed numerous times by university band across the US.

EL SALON MEDICO (1976) for orchestra

One day when I visited our friends I saw an oil-painting on the wall about Chinese village boys. It inspired me to compose this song in pentatonic scale

Day In A Chinese Village

Olivier Tabeling      piano
Andy Scherrer        saxophon

Inspired by Michail Bulgakows "Master and Margerita"

Behemots Dance

This short track is an electronic statement who replaces a verbal one. Like many statements is pompous and patronizing so it generates interference and feedback, spite of which it continues repetitively.

Ave Maria (SATB) - Luke Flynn

"The Hushed House" by Luke Flynn
Commissioned and performed by the Young New Yorkers' Chorus
www.LukeFlynnCompositions.com

I, who went at nightfall, came again at dawn;
On Love's door again I knocked. Love was gone.
One who oft had bade me in, now would bid no more;
Silence sat within the house; barred its door.
When the slow door opened wide through it I could see
How the emptiness within stared at me.
Through the dreary chambers, long I sought and sighed,
But no answering footstep came; naught replied.
Then at last I entered, dim, a darkened room:
There a taper glimmered gray in the gloom.
And I saw one lying crowned with helichrys;
Never saw I face as fair as was theirs.
Like a wintry lily was their brow in hue;
And their cheeks were each a rose, wintry too.
Then my soul remembered all that made us part,
And what I had laughed at once broke my heart.
-Text by Madison Julius Cawein (1865 - 1914)

N.B.: no cats were harmed in the writing of this music - the title is connected to the 1930's "Schroedinger's Cat" quantum physics experiments ! Verschränkung - perhaps the title should have a "?" at the end ...

I've launched this account (and my YouTube channel http://www.youtube.com/user/edwardcortesmusic ) to spread some of the music I've composed, so all the music that I upload to this page is original and I am the "guilty" of it. 
I've composed in different genres, starting with classical music and also pop, rock, jazz, electronic, electro-acoustic, etc. Sorry if some of my tracks are long for these days ears, I begg you to try to be patient.

I hope you can enjoy my music and your comments will be more than welcome,  and I hope to interact with your opinions. 

It's easy to like a track but it's much more valuable to me if you comment or share my music.

To all those who follow me, comment, share or like my works, know that I am very grateful.
