ORCHESTRAL
Full Orchestra, Bold, Exciting
Fanfare for the essential worker
This piece heralds the essential and frontline workers during the COVID-19 pandemic. It reflects a strength and perseverance with an augmentation to the melodic line reflecting the unease of the entire situation.
voices unheard repeated
Small Ensemble, Minimalism, Violent
This piece is an intense exploration of cycles of abuse, particularly relating to children in domestic situations. The unrelenting piano descends slowly into an extremely heavy place while the rest of the ensemble interject with aggressive gestures culminating in the final silence coming as a relief, until the cycle begins again.
don't mess with mars
Full Orchestra, Cinematic, Thematic
This cinematic orchestral work inspired by the larger than life Hollywood stylings of John Williams and John Powell builds an inspiring, out-of-this-world adventure.
