Time to Fly High

Jesus Christ The Apple Tree - Mawby

I have endured this pain that you've caused me
Now it's time that I finally

Burn the bridge
Watch it fall

Just like the clock, I'm going in circles
Back and forth, I relentlessly pace
You'd better pray to what you believe in
I don't discover your hiding place

Each and every time that I see you
I just want the memory erased

Burn my eyes
Burn my mind

Vs. The World

Deer God

Nasvhille Opera; Jordan Rutter, Countertenor

ABOUT THE ARIA
From Masquerade, the third act in a trio of operas called Three Way. Masquerade takes place at a lavish suburban home. It’s a swinglife party, where people from all walks of life pursue their wildest erotic dreams. Couples in masks and robes have paired off in twos and threes. Kyle, half of a genderqueer couple, is left alone, and feels frozen, unsure what to do. Even though Kyle believes that sexuality and gender is fluid, they feel unable to make a move.

ABOUT THE OPERA
An Il trittico for the Tinder generation, Three Way is a new opera about the present and future of sex and love with music by Robert Paterson (The Whole Truth) and a libretto by David Cote (Blind Injustice). In three playful acts, average heroes explore the worlds of android lovers, BDSM and polyamory in a quest for “more” in today’s hyperconnected and gender-fluid world. Featuring Nashville Opera, conducted by Dean Williamson. Original cast recording.

LYRICS
Why so shy?
Why stuck in place, hesitating?
Why so shy?
You’ve got to move, stop waiting.
Where are your high ideals?
Revolutionary zeal?
It’s not about who you touch;
It’s about how much they make you feel.

What gives our bodies so much joy,
Has led instead to so much pain.
And acts occurring naturally,
Actually, have been twisted 
Into laws and lies and shame.

Until we stop caring,
Until we stop caring,
Until we stop caring,
With whom we do it,
And how we do it,
And why we do it,
There will be no freedom.
There will be no peace.
No release.

Why this fear?
I’ve faced many things before.
Still I shake.
Won’t make it through the night.
Some choose one, some three dozen,
Which doesn’t lessen any fright.

Maybe you’re under construction:
Work-in-progress, unfinished art.
Keep changing the frame and position,
Each revision revealing more of your heart. 
A masterpiece of self-creation,
But first find the will to start.

If we stop caring,
If we stop caring,
If we stop caring,
With whom we do it,
And how we do it,
And why we do it,
People would share.
People would build
A paradise.

Still: Why so shy?
I have to change.
I have changed.
What holds me back?
Some ideology. 
Society—inside of me.
The angry god of my youth.
Thought I’d finally fought free.

Disruptive Awakening

This piece is inspired by series of the Korean folk music such as the Chestnut Song (군밤타령), Nyl-lee-lee-ya(늴리리야), and Arirang (아리랑). These songs have been practiced and sang for a long time, bringing people together, relishing a good harvest, and celebrating a harmonious nature and spirit.

However, Korea is now separated into two, communist North Korea, and republic South Korea, divided and victimized by the political and historical reasons, both nations share the pain of separation and broken families. 

However, it is my strong belief that our proud Korean spirit still remains, and it still on-going determination for both nations to be reunited and rejoice the harmony once we shared.

By composing Korean melody with the orchestral palette, it is my sincere hope for all Korean people, to honor the good spirit, cherish the heritage, and spread the goodwill which can influence people all around the world as well.

Los Angeles Film Conducting Intensive (LAFCI) is a workshop to train art of conducting and provide an education and resources to help media composers succeed on the podium. A team of great faculties was there to teach such as Angeles Velez, Conrad Pope, William Ross, Jorge Mester, Emilie Bernstein, and Carl Rydlund, a Hollywood's best professionals who have a long history of film-music production experiences. Each one of them there to train, discipline, influence, and encourage for all of the LAFCI participants.

As a 2019 LAFCI fellow, I was privileged to compose, conduct, and record my personal work at the Eastwood Recording Stage, Burbank, USA. It will remain as one of my memorable experiences, and I would highly recommend this workshop for those who wish to improve their art of conducting and work ethics as a film, media, and game composer.
