Every time u release a score, I keep wondering how you put together so many notes and arrangement them... Excellent!

Welcome to Expressivo's MusicTech video #69, Autumnal Awakening.  In this video, I’ve created a descriptive piece of music focusing on the Autumn themes with particular attention to cheeky squirrels.  Using StaffPad with iPad, I prepare this piece over the course of a month.

The music has an introduction welcoming the Autumn months, Fall colours, and tumbling leaves.  The time signature of ⅞ adds an odd rhythmic lilt that lends itself to the quirky motions of squirrels.  The strings later take a motif of the theme supported by the woodwinds.  The four French Horns rambunctiously introduce a brassy new theme empowering the cheeky squirrels playfully jumping from branch to fences and then, telephone lines.  You will hear a cackle of crows laughing at the squirrels motion, represented by muted trumpets.  As if in response, the squirrels taunt the crows reflected in a seductive violin melody taken from the previous section with portamento slides and a brief chromaticism.  The piece gently comes to an end with a restatement of the first theme played on the oboe.

The presentation uses 3 music creation apps namely Finale, Dorico and StaffPad to show a connection of orchestral score to piano reduction and scrolling score playback.  I highly recommend a look at these apps to see which fit into your notation and compositional methods.
I would be delighted if you would leave a comment.

Autumnal Awakening

composed by Conrado del Rosario
For several years, because of numerous reasons, I wasn’t really keen on the Christmas season.
This changed this summer of 2022 when I started to look forward to it. As Christmas approached I was more excited and wrote a simple Christmas piece for chamber orchestra. The piece quotes some portions of traditional Christmas songs. 
Thank you for listening and I hope you like it!
Written and rendered with Staffpad and its libraries. #staffpad
