The music of John Williams sparked my interest
in film scoring at an early age.
The following are examples of some
of my works in this area.
The String Quartet pays homage to
a couple of my favorite composers: Ravel and Debussy.
To start off, here's a demo soundtrack
that I composed for a national planetarium show production company.

Planetarium Show Demo*
(This piece was performed entirely on the Korg Karma workstation, recorded
in ProTools, and scored to video footage provided by the production company.)

10. Christmas
Overture 2004 - Scott Jones arranger, orchestrations
- An arrangement I did for full orchestra. John Williams
was my model for this, as I think he writes really accessible music
that still has rich harmony and rhythmic life. If you're a fan of his,
you'll hear countless references to everything from Superman, Harry
Potter, Empire Strikes Back, Star Wars, and his American Journey Olympics
themes..... I basically did this in short themes from the "Hallelujah
Chorus" "Joy to the World", "Angels We Have Heard
on High", "Hark the Herald", "Angels From the Realms
of Glory", "God Rest Ye Merry Gentlemen", "O Come
All Ye Faithful", and then reprised "Joy" (with a wink
to the Nutcracker) and "Hark", and worked in "For Unto
Us" at the end.
Pieces 6, 7, 8, & 9 RECORDED DURING
PERFORMANCE AT GRACE CHURCH
