Chrysalis

Sorry I haven't posted much lately. I've been sick.

Today, I'm putting up a sort of demo version of a piece that I think is my best work in composing via computer. I've been tinkering with it, trying to find a sound that works, but that was becoming very complicated, so instead I've just put up the most recent version using the sounds that I composed it with - all bell-based synths.

Chrysalis

I hope someday to record a version of this for steelpan orchestra but in its current state I fear that the arpeggio parts are unplayable due to their speed and complexity. The cello voice is wonderful for arpeggios but the size and layout of the instrument makes it very physically demanding to play complex lines without rest.
