New composer, dreaming big

Brian Timmons · 2006-01-02T03:24:58

Here's my first somewhat large-scale orchestral work so far. A friend of mine wants to make a medieval/fantasy adventure game and wants me to do the music for it. What I've composed so far has no specific instance in the game in mind, rather it's an overture that someone would hear during a cinematic montage or end credits. It's a series of motifs and their variations, ultimately recapping with a strong restatement of the original theme. Equipment used: Noteworthy Composer for sequencing and orchestration, my friend's Yamaha Motif keyboard as an outboard tone generator. It lacks somewhat in the orchestral sounds, but it beats the general MIDI I have to work with at home. Hopefully I'll get the Garritan Personal Orchestra for Christmas and my sound palette will broaden considerably.

I just got the Garritan Personal Orchestra (www.garritan.com) for Christmas, and after a few days of tweaking this piece it's already sounding light years better. I'll post an update soon once I have the entire piece re-sequenced. Right now I'm 1:07 in out of 4:40.
