This page is simply a showcase of the wide variety of music I compose. The work on this page ranges from small chamber works to full orchestral arrangements, as well as synthesized pieces. I write in a broad range of styles, from the traditional epic "Hollywood" sound, to more esoteric ensembles and sparser textures. My influences range from Strauss and Ravel to Thomas Newman and Danny Elfman. These influences, coupled with my love of Jazz and experimental tonalities allow me to provide a wide array of music, but always with a personal touch. I hope you enjoy the music.
Your influences?
Thomas Newman, Danny Elfman, Bernard Herrmann, Christopher Young, John Williams, Satie, Ravel, Debussy, Yann Tiersen, Jon Brion, Philip Glass. I also love Jazz--Artie Shaw, Glenn Miller, Miles Davis, John Coltrane, Dave Brubeck are a few.
