Someone once said that symphonic orchestra is the most sophisticated musical instrument humanity ever invented. And I always felt like this is an ultimate challenge for a composer to write music for such a giant. I started my first shy attempts to compose orchestral music a few years ago. Of course, at that time it was all done using digital libraries. I did dream that one day I may experience the thrill of hearing a live orchestra performing my compositions but that was truly an ephemeral dream, no actual plans to do it. Until now.

This summer my husband and I took a composing course (focusing on film composing). As a part of that course I had a homework: to compose a piece for a string orchestra. I chose the solo piano piece I wrote earlier this year as a foundation. It took a few evenings to come up with the orchestral arrangements - again, using digital libraries... at first! But then my husband said that he feels like this piece deserves to be recorded with live orchestra. And so it happened - two months ago we hired a session orchestra from Budapest. We only had half an hour session to record 2.5 minutes of this composition. Gosh, it was such an amazing experience! When I heard 40 musicians playing the harmony I burst in tears. Then I was shocked again to learn that my composition was nominated for Hollywood Music in Media Awards.

I called this piece "Distant Memories". It was written during one of the lockdowns when I was on the edge of breaking down. I devoted it to my mom, who lives on the other side of Atlantic but she used to come here every year.. until 2020.. and then 2021.. I hope we will see each other next year. But meanwhile all we have are those "distant memories".

The original piano solo version is coming next week!

"Distant Memories" (Orchestral) by Milana Zilnik

The loss of a beloved pet is very traumatic. My friends Robert and Jane lost their bulldog Livy to lymphoma recently. This composition is dedicated to them, and of course, Livy. The photo in the art work is by Robert Holmes.

Hypnogram Ad Infinitum - Louis Rugg

Luce is an intimate song unveiling the deepest pain.
Sometimes it is through simplicity that emotions and memories emerge. Like a wrinkle on your face, witness to a wound or a scar, it is impossible to be erase, we can just accept it.

Luce

For my friend and tutor, Liz Dicker, whose miraculous compositions, note perfect performances and friendship, inspire me

Nocturnes Op. 1 No. 4

Godzilla Scene 7 (V2) "Confession"

Version choirs Epic music is the idea of a song (usually instrumental or cinematic in nature) that
brings home a very clear feeling . It may be inspirational or even spiritual. Perhaps it is meant to get
our hearts racing with adrenaline. In any case, epic songs take us out of our surroundings. Music
ignites our imagination and this adds a very powerful layer to the way people experience visual
content.
