News
Eurydice has recently been rewritten, remixed, and extended to six movements. The goal of the project was to better create programmatic music depicting the myth of Orpheus and Eurydice. The recording was created using orchestral samples and is an attempt to create as realistic a performance as possible in the absence of actual performers.
My first album Eurydice for string orchestra is now available for download!!
