I had a lot of fun writing this little piece and getting inspired by the awesome sounds from TALLINN.

video: https://youtu.be/_JidrdDuN3U

* All sounds and instruments used are taken only from TALLINN *

About TALLINN:
"The evocative sound of a unique music culture, bridging a thousand years from
the ancient to the contemporary. Tallinn features the world-famous Estonian
Philharmonic Chamber Choir and Tallinn Chamber Orchestra plus two organs—all
recorded in the iconic Niguliste church. With a pure, wintry, ‘Nordic’ sound,
Tallinn is equally well suited to early music as to contemporary minimalism and
avant garde, adding distinctive textures to dramatic scores, underscoring, and
any other expressive compositions." - Orchestral Tools

Lost Synth Demo by Friedrich Gattermann

Hey there!
I am a 21 years old jazz composition student currently based in Hanover (Germany) with a major interest in film music. 
My projects range from soundtracks for shorts and feature films but I am also composing contemporary jazz pieces for big band and orchestra. 
In the past I have been very fortunate to work with amazing ensembles such as the NDR Big Band or the Filmorchester Babelsberg.
