This piece may also be familiar to some of my social media followers. You may know 'Aurora" as the Northern Lights. As much as I would love to say that 'I was so inspired by the colors, that I wrote this piece to capture it,' that's not true. I picked the name for the piece. I just thought that it had such a bright and airy feel to it, that there was no better name than 'Aurora.'

Battle Cry

I created a theme for the mystery, Sherlock Holmes.  This piece has a more modern theme while trying to keep the industrial and bouncy feel based off of the BBC's 2010-2017 TV series original score.

Sherlock Holmes Theme

A string orchestra piece that shows the transition to the Autumn season.  The new temperatures, the slow breeze, and the fall of leaves.
