PROGRAM NOTES
Journey into Courage is a documentary directed by Bess O'Brien about domestic violence in rural Vermont. It was originally a touring stage production with a cast of women from rural Vermont who were victims of domestic violence. The documentary is largely made up of footage shot during the tour as well as interviews of the women in the stage production.

Journey into Courage Suite is derived from the soundtrack for the documentary and is intended to be performed on stage as a suite for eight musicians. The performing ensemble can choose which versions (if there are multiple ones) of each piece it will perform. The short version, e.g. without repeats, may be performed if a shorter suite is desired.

I am an award winning composer and music designer telling stories with music and bringing listeners on audio journeys.

All recorded at home with Magix DAW and a midi keyboard. Hope you find something you like.

Dizzy O’Brian is redefining the boundaries between classical composition and alternative rock. Drawing on the spirit of Third Stream music, he creates cinematic soundscapes where melody and narrative collide. His distinctive style — Dizzy Rock — fuses orchestral depth with alt-rock emotion, inviting listeners into stories told through sound. Featured works include the four-part series Oath of the Dreamers and the suites Secrets of the Heart and A Night in Appalachia.

I started composing daily pieces and posting them onto SoundCloud at the beginning of 2013.  By posting daily I am tweaking, experimenting and developing a thought, idea or event in time.  I am endeavouring to show that there is no limit to that creative spark that lies within each of us.  So much of what we do nowadays is about instant return, I am about evolution not revolution (although each month starts with a clean slate).  Join me on my journey to 10,000 (18 May 2040!!!)

Over the years I have found the Soundcloud community to be extremely supportive and encouraging.  It’s great to have a Global Mastermind of musical adventurers.

Thank you!
