As we live through a sixth mass extinction, it is not difficult to question whether we can act as good stewards of our earth. While I often feel a sense of despair — how could we have messed this up so badly? — my thoughts are often, perhaps irrationally, tempered by a sense of optimism. Maybe we can fix this, or at least that’s what I tell myself. Triple Concerto is essentially an exploration of these emotions. As a scenic point of departure, the entire work also uses three types of geographical regions as inspiration.

Triple Concerto is structured a bit differently than a traditional concerto. An introduction and three larger movements are interspersed with three small trio-centric movements that loosely function as either a prelude, interlude, or cadenza. These three smaller movements also exist as a stand-alone version for the piano trio that may be performed as a sort of “teaser” for the concerto on a chamber music concert.

The first movement, Introduction, loosely evokes a sunrise. Toward the end of the movement, bird song melodies from around the world are incorporated and performed by the winds. This leads to a movement entitled Chorale Prelude, focusing on the piano trio, leading to a joyful third movement, Bright Pastorale, filled with bright, sunlit bell-like chords and sounds reminiscent of birdsong. Moments of despair begin to appear as the movement progresses. The movement ends darkly, like an overcast sky before a storm. The fourth movement, Interlude, echoes the beginning, focusing on the trio once again and evoking a sense of longing, the sound of a more innocent time. Tundra, the fifth movement, is cold, dark, and bleak but with swaths of color. A sense of sadness and loneliness permeates this movement, at times represented by various mournful effects such as bent notes created by dipping tubular bells in water and glissandi in the strings and brass.

After the fifth movement, the trio performs a virtuosic Cadenza, full of grief and rage but with signs of hope. This leads to the final movement, entitled Summit. Ascending lines suggest climbing a mountain, both literally and figuratively. After a brief climax, eleven bell-like chords sound one after the other, symbolizing the chimes of the Doomsday Clock. The winds perform birdsong once again, perhaps of songbirds that may soon become endangered or even extinct. In a nod to Haydn’s Symphony No. 45 (his “Farewell Symphony”), the players leave the stage one by one until all that is left are the trio and conductor.

Triple Concerto was commissioned by the Neave Trio and premiered by the trio and Mostly Modern Orchestra, JoAnn Falletta, conductor, at Mostly Modern Festival in Saratoga Springs, NY.

Triple Concerto, "Summit" for Piano Trio and Orchestra (World Premiere)

My little boy, come unto me
Full all your youthful energy
I'm your mama
Oh pretty girl, find for yourself
In the clubs where the men congregate
Your rich and fine papi

You can flaunt your youth
You certainly have the right
And you will learn
More than any textbooks could teach you
Make good of all the days
That you'll only have for now
It may be gone before you know

So if you're ready to grab what waits for you
Are you ready, have a real good time
Are you ready to handle this

So little boy, bring unto me
All your bountiful vitality
(Get on it)
Hey sexy girl, daddy will show you how
In this city of dreams how wild your thrill-seeking can be

You can flaunt your youth
You certainly have the right
And you will learn
More than anyone could teach you

So if you're ready, grab what waits for you
Are you ready, have a real good time
Are you ready to handle this
Are you ready to handle, handle, handle me

Are You Ready (feat. Natalie)

Retro inspired track with female vocals and a relaxing/ downtempo beat.

Just a classic 80's inspired song.

Back in 2014, when I had only a DAW and a cellphone, I began recording my own music for soundcloud. These early sessions were really basic and not very good. The sound was horrible, but at the same time, I wasn't discouraged by any of this and there were a few songs that I did come from all of this, with this being one of them. I set out to reproduce this song as best as I could, given I originally recorded it over 7 years ago. I really like how this came out and the keys are an addition the original did not have. Also, Andy Pfitzer lent his musical talents to all the lead work which really brings the whole thing together. I hope you enjoy.

I Am A Time Traveler

Love

Excommunicado

Born in the quiet suburbs of a small town, in the vibrant era of the 1980s, my heart beat to the rhythm of neon lights and synthesizers. While the world around us evolved, I found solace and inspiration in the nostalgic melodies that defined my youth.

My passion manifested in the form of synthwave music - electronic compositions that echo the neon-lit streets and the cinematic dreams of the '80s. Each beat, each melody is a testament to my deep connection to the era I hold dear.
