My classical writing is dark, intense, emotional, beautiful and oddly both demanding and easy on the ear, according to the feedback I've had over the years. At the very least, I can say it differs a lot from the music I write for films.

This crossover of scoring for the stage and the screen is an interesting one and I find both influence each other. When commissioned to write music for film and TV, I am often required to score music that is mostly or purely classical in style. This is where my classical composition skills get challenged. You see, when you write for the concert hall, you have a freedom limited only by your chosen muse. When scoring to screen, you are, in essence, a slave to the symphonic ballet of movement, emotions, words and colours. 

Below, is a small window into some of my classical music, some for screen and some for the concert hall. 

Thank you for taking the time to read and listen. It is always much appreciated.
