Gaston Borch composed “Shadows in the Night (Misterioso)" in 1919 for publication by Carl Fischer, New York. "Shadows in the Night" is a photoplay (silent film) cue - what we now call a soundtrack. The title suggests it was intended to accompany night scenes, perhaps those where there is some skullduggery afoot. 

Though not specified in Borch’s composition, for our recording we used con sord samples for many of the string parts to get a more covered, darker, sound. Also, the instrumentation was stripped down to essential parts for a cleaner sound.

Recording produced by @MLucas on January 27, 2025 using optical music recognition (OMR) from the original sheet music.

Shadows in the Night (Gaston Borch)

Christopher O’Hare (1867 - c. 1943) composed “Sea Song” in 1918 "for surf scenes, on the sea, sailors etc.” as part of Oliver Ditson’s “Music for the photoplay” series, intended to accompany movies in the silent era. It’s a late romantic theater orchestra composition — a rolling 12/8 time blizzard of arpeggios. Though brief, it could have been looped for longer scenes. 

Our recording started using Optical Music Recognition (OMR) applied to scans of the original copies of theater orchestra parts from 1918. The OMR product was edited in Dorico, assembled into a score and exported to Logic Pro to be recorded with sampled instruments. 

This piece was interpreted rather freely: the original organ part was mostly omitted, with the retained parts being performed by a synthetic choir. The low brass melody -- written for trombone - was recorded using a Euphonium sample.

The artwork is based on a Currier and Ives hand colored lithograph captioned “A squall off Cape Horn”. The print was originally published between 1840 and 1890. Library of Congress bookmark: https://www.loc.gov/pictures/item/97514621/.

Symphony No.6 op. 45 Movement 1 - Moderato

Wer hier "moderne" Musik erwartet oder gar einfordert, muss sie anderen Ortes suchen. Ich fühle mich ganz und gar der romantischen Musikausrichtung des 19. Jahrhunderts verpflichtet und versuche ihr wieder Leben einzuhauchen.
Oder auf Englisch:
I see myself in the continuation of classical traditions and try to create music in the style of romantic composers of the 19. century. So I regret to let miss any modern style or understanding of present tastes... look for them please at other places. 
Like an old saw, all is already said, but not by everyone.
Was nicht heißt, dass ich nur in der Vergangenheit umherstreife.....
