Improv U07 Improv U07
Another (unnamed) improv I recorded on my keyboard earlier this year. I remember listening to Eric Whitacre's "Sleep" and "Lux Arumque" and Barber's "Adagio for Strings" before starting this. It would be nice arranged for a real ensemble.

I am a graduate of the University of Hawaii at Manoa with a degree in music composition. This goes without saying but I love music (listening, composing, studying, performing).Band/artist history
I was born in 1987 in Honolulu, Oahu, Hawaii. I spent my early years in Kailua where I developed an appreciation for classical and new age music. In seventh grade I moved to Mililani, where I began playing horn. Composition started a year later, when I experimented with composing for computer games. In high school I decided to try my hand at writing for larger ensembles. Recently, I graduated from the University of Hawaii at Manoa, with a degree in music composition. Musically, I think I've matured a great deal since I started; I've even included my earliest significant piece here for comparison.Your musical influences
I draw from all sorts of sources, from traditional classical to pop to world to film scores. I especially enjoy film scores and video/computer game music, such as that by John Williams, Jeremy Soule, James Horner, Koji Kondo, and Nobuo Uematsu. I also enjoy Javanese and Balinese gamelan, jazz, trance/progressive house, and so much more.What equipment do you use?
Sibelius 6, Garritan Personal Orchestra, VDL 2.5, Garritan Concert and Marching Band, EastWest Symphonic Orchestra Gold PLAY, PianoTeq.....For my electronic stuff, FL Studio, Sytrus, Sylenth, and custom VST dual-voice OPL2 (Doom style) emulator by me.Anything else?
