This had been my final submission to 2023's VSL Contest's Round 1. It didn't get me into round 2, but I've enjoyed making this little snippet, too.

Sweetness

Remake of a track from the Star Wars movie "A New Hope" composed by John Williams.
All the music is made with the Vienna Symphonic Library.

Throne Room & Finale

Am I literally a fan of Debussy now?!?

I first heard this piece played through the Philharmonia Orchestra's iOS app, and thought to my self... "This would be a pretty good piece to re-interpret."

For this interpretation, Almost every part through the midi file was used through the Vienna Symphonic Library's Synchron Prime Edition, and Hello Free Instruments Small Percussion Crotales. The Solo Violins and Cello came from Performance Samples and Alpine Project.

Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun

Claude Debussy: Prelude to the Afternoon of a Faun - MIDI Interpretation

A midi simulation of a piece for three female vocal lines, which can be soloist or choir ensemble. With accompaniment from piano and string ensemble. The size of the accompanying ensemble should match the size of the vocal grouping.

Song

A piece of midi generated library music to accompany a video of the mines on the cliffs at Botallack in the far west of Cornwall. The video can be watched here youtu.be/Z7sw-5NqgKw on our YouTube channel please subscribe.

Soaring Above

A stand alone piece for full orchestra, Cornish Soundscape 'An Ancient Land' is also the seminal piece from which all the musical elements of the ‘Ancient Stones of Kernow’ project are derived www.ancientstonesofkernow.co.uk. These include the commentaries that accompany the 'Ancient Stones' tours and the dance theatre piece the ballet Ancient Stones of Kernow 'Mid-Summer Rituals'. Separate videos of some of the parts of the piece can be found on YouTube channel https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCZ802ijBXqPwqJ8Ze9NCvuw please subscribe. These illustrate the character of landscape that inspired the piece. The music for the 'Ancient Stones of Kernow project is a computer generated orchestral simulation. The scores are written in Sibelius score system and the generated "midi" is manipuled in Logic Pro X, using Vienna Symphonic Library.

OP354 Lazy Sun Glow - Dorico

The theme for this piece was written as incidental music for the stage play 'Merchant of Venice' but remained unused in the final production. Here it is used as the theme for a set of variations with drum set accompaniment; in the the tradition of medieval pipe and tabour.

Flute Dance 'The Merchant's Tune'

The original version of this Quartet was written in the mid-1970's during my final year at the Royal College of Music London. It was give a read through at this time by a group including my professor at the college Edward Walker, who gave the piece its title after a famous beer of the day, and Andrew Findon, who became a leading session flautist. Have recently come across the manuscript, I have extended and revised the piece and produced this midi-simulation.

Au dela des ombres-Au dela des ombres

This piece was created for one of several assignments in the "Film Scoring 101" course, I successful completion at Berklee Online.

music, arrangement, mix and mastering: Angelo Bordieri

"Previous Life (Another Life)" is one of the songs I composed during the course "Film Scoring 101" at Berklee Online.
In truth, the assignment included writing the script of a short scene with a free theme, on which each student would then have to compose the relative soundtrack.
The script I wrote is about a thirty-year-old who, on his way to a party with friends, travels along the road that leads to his old house where he had lived his childhood with his parents and his brother. He decides to make a small detour to see his house again. Once he gets out of the car, he realizes that the house is now an uninhabited ruin. There, he will experience a sort of trance from which he will emerge shocked, but which will allow him to seal and at the same time, to preserve in a more serene way, this chapter of his life.

Previous Life (Another Life)

Born in a musical family, Gilles made his debuts on the Ottawa scene as guitar player. After some university studies in musicology and research in semiotics, his interest for descriptive music developed through his meeting with Canadian composer Robert Fleming of the National Film Board (NFB). 

After a career in computer engineering and software development, Gilles now returns to the composition of descriptive music and the pleasure of orchestral writing. Good listening!

P.S. Please use headphones for better sound fidelity.

I'm a piano and acoustic guitar player and i love to compose for every purpose from classic to contemporary music.

Après avoir suivi des études de musique au conservatoire de Nîmes, j’ai créé un studio analogique professionnel dans lequel j’ai enregistré de nombreux albums pour des artistes locaux ou nationaux comme les Gipsy kings, le groupe mythique de l’époque disco Les Gibson Brothers, ou encore Chico et les Gipsys, Dominique Di Piazza (John McLaughlin Trio).

Je travaille en tant que compositeur, arrangeur ou réalisateur dans divers domaines, musique de film, musique publicitaire, réalisation discographique pour de nombreuses sociétés comme les éditions Paul Beuscher, Sony music, CINETEVE, Perrier SA, Nrj, Serimage Films, France télévisions, Trafic fm (asf), etc..

Since his early teens he has devoted himself to composition and electronic music. In the same period he began his classical guitar studies and was admitted to the conservatory, studies which he continued privately. After classical studies, he devoted himself to composing original songs and soundtracks. Attracted by jazz, he continues his educational path by studying harmony and improvisation.
