KE Peace's Requiem Part 1
I write symphonic, small ensemble and choral music, in multiple styles from medieval through modern classical. The music you hear on my pages is created with Finale notation software and Garritan Personal Orchestra sound samples. All pieces have a traditional score associated with them; if you are interested in any piece for possible performance, please contact me for details on scoring, instrumentation, pricing, etc. Recent Concert: I enjoy many kinds of music for listening - rock, pop, jazz, world, and classical of all periods. I am interested also in the fusion of art, poetry, dance, video, and ritual with music, music as a healing force and have been a music volunteer in the hospice setting.
Band/artist history
Wrote a little anti-war song in '72....wrote some music for church services in '78... applied to New England Conservatory for composition in '79 and was rejected.... was a music major at a state university for a semester or so; got bored and switched majors....got an MS in Computer Info Systems in '91... worked as a software engineer for 14 years... got very ill in 2002.... started composing when i had the energy... withstood the silence and disbelief when I called myself a "composer" thanks to stubbornness and the support of many friends and colleagues... wrote my first note of a symphonic piece around 2006, disregarding the little voice telling me that I "couldn't do that!!" .... and so on. :-) Advice to anyone who wants to write: just keep at it; if it's not in you, you'll stop, but will have gained some life experience; if it is in you, you will not be able to live without it. Ask anyone who will listen for feedback. Keep your ego out of it and never stop being a student. Good luck!
Have you performed in front of an audience?
No, I play dead (but only when threatened). ;-) Seriously, not usually. Occassionally I'll sing somewhere or pick up a guitar for friends, or perform some original music for a local church service. However, I do perform live in my garage-cum-concert hall frequently.
Your musical influences
The classical composers from medieval through contemporary. Rock groups with classical backgrounds (eg, Yes, Genesis, ELP, Jethro Tull, Kate Bush). Jazz. Blues. Gregorian chant and Hildegard of Bingen. Almost anything of quality within its genre could inspire me.
What equipment do you use?
I use Finale and Garritan sample libraries for my work, and do the vast majority of my work sitting at the computer. I also use ProTools for recording audio, and am interested in MIDI and audio mastering. I have a Triton ProX sampling/MIDI keyboard, a Variax modeling guitar, and other acoustic instruments from guitars and a tanpura to various fun little percussion items, including two musical frogs. :-)
