This piece was a collaborative duet composed and performed by myself and my little sister.  I played the upper register.

For reasons unknown but time will tell...
Multi-instrumentalist, all types of music, all types of methods.
Occasional collaborations with other artists.
Sometimes I post the sheet music if it's piano.
Lately, my favorite instrument is a TE OP-1 Field keyboard.

Hi everyone I'm Lee Oakes, home grown self taught keyboardist and composer.
All of my creations are  traditional multi track recordings and composing at the keyboard.
I don't use DAW or A.I. and i never use a metronome (very distracting)
The sounds and instruments I use are mostly undoctored and appear in their raw format straight from the keyboard.
Over time you will hear a variation of genres in my music but the main theme will be soundtrack music.
If I create a tune that inspires an emotional response or lets you escape into another world for a few moments, then I have achieved my goal ✨

HELLO! PLEASE ENJOY MY SONG AND HAVE A NICE DAY!

Hi! I'm David De Quinto, a passionate and multifaceted composer. My main motivation for creating music is to express my moods. Throughout my career, I have learned and composed classical and tonal music, and gradually, I have been experimenting with other compositional forms such as modes, exotic scales, pitch class set, Bartók's axes, cardinal points, and atonalism.

I had the privilege of learning harmony and tonal composition, as well as jazz, from the great composer, bassist, choir and orchestra director, and excellent teacher Julio Blasco, to whom I am deeply grateful for his teachings. Additionally, I explored new sonorities and discovered the works of Bartók, Philip Glass, among many others, atonal music, and musique concrète through my instrumental training and music didactics professor, Nieves Hernández, whose guidance has been invaluable.

I love composing ethereal and ambient music, though I often return to my classical roots with its characteristic instrumentation. Synthesizers are essential in my compositions as they allow me to explore unique textures and atmospheres.

At 51 years old, life has greatly influenced my musical career, providing me with a variety of both good and bad experiences. My musical influences include artists like Brian Eno, John Carpenter, Paul McCartney, Jean-Michel Jarre, Tangerine Dream, Aphex Twin, Nacho Goberna, Mike Oldfield, Erik Satie, Kebu, and Arvo Pärt.

The genres I enjoy composing the most vary depending on my mood, but I often lean towards creating sad and melancholic pieces. I enjoy composing and listening to lofi, ambient, dark ambient, ambient black metal, minimalist music, psybient, illbient, and dark wave. I am particularly proud of "Veil of Mist" and "Arabian Nights" because they explore atmospheres that are different from what I usually compose, and I believe they turned out quite well.

Currently, I have several projects in mind, including creating a series of symphonic poems for 4 or 5 synthesizers and for flute, violin, viola, cello, and piano. I am also exploring synthwave composition and have several pending collaborations that I am excited about.

At this stage of my life, my biggest dream is to compose music that expresses my feelings, and it brings me joy when listeners can decipher the emotions I try to convey with my compositions. Besides music, I enjoy writing short stories, especially horror, and listening to a lot of music, as music is life for me.

I began in music as a form of personal expression, finding it easier to compose a piece to explain how I feel than to say it in words, as I am a person of few words. I invite you to immerse yourself in my musical world and join me on this sonic journey. I hope you enjoy my compositions as much as I enjoy creating them. Thank you for listening!

"Redder" is a palindrome. Like "racecar" or "level". These pieces of music ain't.
