Stravinsky - 'Infernal Dance' (2007) Stravinsky - 'Infernal Dance' (2007)

Mahler: Symphony No. 5, III. Scherzo (2006) Mahler: Symphony No. 5, III. Scherzo (2006)

And another mockup for VSL, of the *entire* scherzo from Mahler's 5th. The 'Hi-Fi' version plays too fast for some reason, so until VSL uploads the full 40-mb mp3 to their site I'd stick with the low-fi version.

Scherzo in D minor (2006) Scherzo in D minor (2006)

A piece with much more in common with late-romantic scherzos than with the literal translation of 'scherzo' from Italian.

Mahler Symphony No. 3, 1st Movement. (2005) Mahler Symphony No. 3, 1st Movement. (2005)

Yes, this is part of the same passage as the last mockup. However, I think the improvement speaks for itself.

Mahler symphony No. 2, 3rd movement (2005) Mahler symphony No. 2, 3rd movement (2005)

Features most of the movement, though I did not get as far as the climax near the end. Another demo I did for VSL.

An older, very agressive piano piece of mine. I don't thing it's actually possible to play, though.

A solo piano piece, written in around three hours. Calm, melancholy, and tranquil, with a slightly darker passage in the middle.

The Calling (incomplete) (2004) The Calling (incomplete) (2004)

This sounds like standard cinematic music. I used to have an ending on the piece, but I ended up scrapping it because it didn't really work at all.
