Variations

Grumpy Kicker prototype track

======

A lonely goatherd kicks his troubles into that poor bass drum

======

Yodel-aee-hee-hooo.

Grumpy Kicker (Demo, Adjusted)

My preferred variant of a soundscapey sorta track I composed for a short film called "The Dream Catcher" my little sister created + animated.

Dream Catcher

Another sketch variant of another upcoming track I wrote some years ago.

Recorded in the same heavily air-conditioned practice room

Piano Sketch 2 (Icarus Theme)

Sketch 2, unfinished instrumental composition variant

aka "Icarus Theme" as used in one of my sister's art projects.

Piano Sketch 2/ Icarus (Orchestral)

I wrote this piece some years back primarily to strengthen my left piano hand.

======
The image is what I imagine harpists see during post-practice nightmares.
======
I've got absolutely no clue what it would be like to play this on a singular harp... or if it's possible?

but I'm definitely curious. 🤔

======

I think I still have the sheet music somewhere. I'll update these details if anyone's interested.

Harp Etude

======

This is the piece "Piano Sketch 1" was based on. I'm working on the next version of Theme 2, aka "Weeping Willow" which is becoming more of a celestial-waltz atmospheric piece. Ooh la la

Should be out ...soon?

ish?
======

So... I realize the tree depicted is actually a Bald Cypress... Ooooops. Um... at least it's a cool tree though, right..?

======

Sad song, sad song, sad song. ...audio fuzz again.

======

I hope you're having a good day, somewhere  :)

For anyone in need of clarity, I found the most confusing picture in my arsenal from Carlsbad Caverns- taken shakily while descending into the abyss...

This piece helps calm me calm down. I hope it finds you well. :)

Fragment 5

(The "Spacewaltz Willow" at long last. Jeez, took me long enough.)

((Ok, ok... there's still a few things bugging me about this track. I'm gonna keep working on it and replacing files. Once it's where I'm happy with, I'll just call it "Voyage" again :D ))

There are many passages within a voyage,
Some calm, Some treacherous; 

To the one who finds themself reading this, I wish you safe passage through your realms- seafaring, cosmic, wayfaring or otherwise.

 -Chris

Voyage (Untweaked)

A small figure fumbles frantically around a wreckage site as light begins to fade. 

Stranded on a moon with every fathomable proximal creature unknown, a faint radio signal remains his fleeting hope of escape.

Nightfall swiftly approaching now, a tormented mind attempts to ward off thoughts of surrounding demons untold.
