Fix Me – Skinny Girl Diet

BBC Radio 1 (2016)

Flesh Without Blood

I originally wanted this without the schizophrenic drums throughout, but in hindsight I'm glad that the percussionist Paul Fadoul told me that it was a bad idea... a beautiful song and I hope my arrangement did it the justice it deserves. A special shout-out to Diederik van Dijk's  heart-throbbing cello playing! What a guy. Also note that Yvette is singing much of this song while doing choreography... while balancing on the top of a ladder. That Yvette is something else!!

Performed by Yvette Coleman and the DxV ensemble.

Bio:

I am a Canadian composer, arranger and multi-instrumentalist based in Vancouver and Corner Brook, Newfoundland. I primarily write concert music (chamber, orchestral, choral), and I have so far written two award-winning short film scores (I Will Keep Your Light (2018), Reverie (2019)). In May 2019, I graduated with a Master's Degree in Music Composition at University of British Columbia where I studied with Jocelyn Morlock, Stephen Chatman, Dorothy Chang and Keith Hamel. In 2017, I completed a Bachelor's degree in Music Composition, where I studied with Andrew Staniland and Clark Ross.

Since I began studying composition in 2015, I have been lucky enough to write for many incredible musicians including TorQ Percussion Quartet, Friction Quartet, Vancouver Symphony Orchestra, Musica Intima, Duo Concertante, Victoria Symphony and others. Looking forward, I have many promising projects and ideas for 2019/2020!
