Arranging
I use Sibelius to create professional, neat, and sight readable charts for any size ensemble. My work includes:
- Strings and horns for live performance or album recording
- Original arrangements of pop songs for Cruise Ship or other shows
- Original arrangements of jazz standards
- Full band charts for modern pop/rock songs (ideal for wedding bands)
Examples
"Snake Dance" off the southern rock band Family Worship Center's 2023 album. Orignal strings and horns arranged for the full album.
"IRL" from the 2024 album Care About It by Jay Si Proof. I produced the full album including all string and horn arrangements.
"Can't We Be Friends" arranged for voice and combo.
"Why" as performed with an original 4 piece string quartet.
Composing
Winner of the "Best of Park" award, A Community Service is a short film directed by Jackson Eagan at the Ithaca College Park School of Communications. The movie follows a boy scout troupe on their faulty service mission to a hurricaine stricken area.
Untitled Puppet Crime Drama
Untitled Puppet Crime Drama mocks the film noir genre with its almost entirely puppet led cast. Directed by Andrew Weir, UPCD features a jazz and funk score.
