Earth (from The Great Solar System Adventure)

I composed this orchestral piece in memory of my father who passed away last month. The title is taken from a poem by Walt Whitman.

Come, said my Soul
Such verses for my Body let us write, (for we are one,)
That should I after death invisibly return,
Or, long, long hence, in other spheres,
There to some group of mates the chants resuming,
(Tallying Earth’s soil, trees, winds, tumultuous waves,)
Ever with pleas’d smiles I may keep on,
Ever and ever yet the verses owning — as, first, I here and now,
Signing for Soul and Body, set to them my name,
Walt Whitman

"Come, said my soul", for my father, in memoriam

For this score, I have used some high-quality sample libraries in order to attempt to achieve a modern-day film score sound. This piece is dear to me as it represents my decision to go from a full-time job in science towards a career as a film music composer. Plan A.

This Track is about a constant repeating situation that at some point needs to change. It somehow resembles some experience i made in the past. You can only Change the Situation when you decide to take a Step into a new direction. 

I wrote this Orchestral Score in the past 4 months in Staffpad on the I pad Pro, later i mastered the Audio Stems from Staffpad in Cubase 14 Pro.  I got some inspiration for 8 Bars in Scaler 3 for the main Piano Theme. The Majority of Instruments used in Staffpad are Spitfire Symphony Orchestra as well as Cinesamples combined with addional texture elements.
