Selected Music for Stage and Dramatic Situations

 

Into The Storm

In this cue, imagine that a young woman rides her motorcycle west out of the Great Plains toward the Rockies. The sky darkens and the wind whips up...

 

Voyage to the Land of Wonder

Picture a middle aged, rather rumpled Englishman walks through a forest. Gradually the leaves sparkle and little creatures come out to meet him. They seem so friendly and nice, hopping and flitting along with our hero. Then one speaks in perfect Ulster accent and calls him by name...

60's Heist Music

The inspiration for this is in the 60's caper comedies scored by Henry Mancini and John Williams. Lots of idiomatic writing for brass and percussion, experimenting with the ends of the instrumental ranges. Listen for the tuba part that goes just a little too low.
