This is the first in a set of preludes, all based off
of various Monet paintings from his water gardens. This
happens to be taken from "The Artist's Garden at
Giverny," one of my favourite paintings.
Written on 2011-11-09 by quantumdylan Been a long time since I
updated here. Okay, here is
the thing, I am not dead!
Quite the opposite, I have
been hard at work. Thus year I
have:
Started taking AP Music theory
at my high school, nearly
finished the piece that I have
been working on (sketches in c
major), started to compose a
musical in honor of my late
clarinet teacher, Andrew
Anthony Mormile, and have also
started to write an opera, and
a demned good one at that!
Besides my composing work, I
finished the rearrangement of
Rhapsody in blue for clarinet
octet, and you can hear that
if you head over to my youtube
channel,
www.youtube.com/quantumdylan53
.
Also, I am part of the Detroit
Symphony Orchestra's
youth ensemble, and got to
play a lovely cadenza in Light
Calvalry overture. Plus, I
will be playing Begin the
Beguine in the jazz band for
my school. Mission
accomplished!
And besides even the
performance aspect of my busy
life, I am now the proud owner
of a zuckerman z-box
harpsichord with both 8'
and 4' octaves. I've
nearly gotten the 8'
restrung, and you can hear it
on my youtube channel as well.
As for everything else, I may
release some soundbites
relating to my opera soon, so
stay tuned
Love you all, Dylan Packard
Together
Written on 2011-02-06 by quantumdylan Hello everyone! I merely
wanted to let everyone know
that if anyone wants to play
the piece Together, I would
appreciate it if you would
talk to me first, as this is
one of the largest pieces
I've composed and it
represents a lot of my time.
Thank you very much!
