Going Nowhere...

This is the opening of a new piece called Going Nowhere - I'm writing for Violin, Viola and Cello - and while it's not right yet - it's an indication of where I'm going. This is rough straight out of reason - no mixing - I'll be developing this alongside Frustration 2 and Moments of Perfection.

From Perfection to Frustration

The nice thing about developing themes for movies is that if they don’t end up in the movie, they still get published as music2work2; this is one such piece.

I’ve been developing this piece as an introduction to a more established theme for Moments of Perfection – it’s supposed to be the beginning of the lovemaking – but SAmi’s absolutely right – it sounds waaay more ominious than it should. Unless of course he was animating praying mantis sex!

However, I do love the tension and how the strings are working together – so I’m taking the idea and incorporating it into the new Frustration II theme. I’m writing for 4 different voices now: Piano, Violin, Viola and Cello – new rig, new tones – scary but exciting all at the same time. We’ll post some more frustration next week!

Getting into the mood

I’ve been struggling with the expression of the central sex theme – I have the core theme – it’s just getting into it that has been a problem. I like where today’s development has taken it – much more of a gentle lead in – although it does get a bit abrupt when we finally start to ascend – I need to smooth that a bit.

Should be tracking this tomorrow night – looking forward to it.

Oh - and the crazy fire wielding human up there on the right - that's the director - SAmi - playing with texture!!!
