I am a scientist who started composing music as a hobby in 2013. I have not studied composition and do not approach it analytically, only intuitively. I took piano lessons in my childhood and teens, but spent most of my adult life without playing piano until 2013. So far I have composed mostly for piano, in a polyphonic style that borrows from the Baroque as well as the Romantic spirit. I describe my style as "Baroquemantic". 

Most of my piano pieces are easy to play.  Some are very easy to play.  

All of my pieces rely on 2 or more concurrent melodies (counterpoint).

Or, as a Portuguese guy named "Carlos Miguel" wrote on YouTube:
"...a boa música é como as boas palavras, depende de quem as diz e de quem as ouve...podem não vir a ser nada e podem ser tudo...ou ambas as situações em simultâneo...genial também é quem ouve...pelo seu modo de ouvir... e não só quem  compõe...pelo seu modo de compor...Carlos Miguel"

I waded into virtual orchestration about 2013, with the intent of composing.  I started programming recordings of other's compositions and have been loving it.  I'm committed to perfecting my craft and I enjoy especially producing music by late nineteenth and early twentieth century English composers.  Something about the music of that time and place speaks to me...  

I also arrange and produce strings in collaboration with other artists and songwriters.  Always fun!
