God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen for Cello Choir

Was bored, so I put the old arrangement of the Russian National Anthem into a new soundfont and added a timpani line (KBH Ultima Strings for the strings and Sibelius for the timpani). Sounds much better than the old one.

Russian National Anthem for Strings

I arranged this for a friend to play with his school band. Unfortunately, the band never chose the piece, so I never got to hear it performed (and/or butchered)in a proper concert. Even though there are a lot of noticeable flaws in here and things I could have done better, I still keep this around as a reminder of one of the only arrangements I've ever actually finished.

The Hunt for Red October for Concert Band

This was just a little sort of semi-serious piece that I made when I was bored and looking through my music. I stumbled upon a forty-second piece a friend had written a long time ago and decided I wanted to reorchestrate it for kicks and giggles.

An Orchestra Thing

Sometimes I want to write music, but don't want to get caught up in the form or structure or worrying about whether a passage would be good for a particular instrument. Chiptune feels somehow liberating in this regard. I don't feel pressured to avoid lazy compositional methods, and all instruments can play anything I want. As a result, the ideas flow a lot more easily.

The music itself doesn't feel too different from classical yet--perhaps because I'm writing this coming from a classical background or perhaps because most modern music follows classical theory to some extent, and video game music doubly so. The form is still a little odd, and the themes doesn't feel developed enough, but again, I wrote this with a special apathy to them for now.

A Different Kind of Music

Tuturu!

I added a little thing at the end despite my usual policy of wanting to be super loyal to the original music because I felt it didn't stray too far from what the composer was going for anyway and it was necessary for an arrangement like this.

"Hacking to the Gate" from Steins;Gate for Violin and Piano

Tuturu!~

Same thing as my previous upload, just changed a bit to be for solo piano. I meant to upload this a while ago, but forgot.

Sometime when I'm not so lazy I'll upload the sheet music.

Hacking to the Gate (Steins;Gate intro) for Piano

Electronic?

The sound of the orchestra fills you with determination.

Россия – священная наша держава,

Могучая воля, великая слава –

I don't even know why I arranged this.
