dido & aeneas

Greetings! Today I wanted to share with you all a new musical doodle. This one is probably my new favorite. I've been really obsessed with the story of Dido & Aeneas lately, and this piece was somewhat inspired with it. All the paintings in the slide show are depictions of the tragic love story, the last one being Dido's death.

This could be performed on a number of instruments, both solo or duet. I have it voiced on classical guitar for this clip, as that is the best electronic voice I could find!

If anyone would like sheet music for this, feel free to comment requesting it!

musical doodle

Sometimes I get bored at school, which results in me locking myself in a practice room with intentions of practicing my viola, but I usually end up messing around on the piano. Well that happened to me yesterday, and I came up with a little musical "doodle."  Of course it's in a somewhat Baroque style. What else would you expect from me? 

The paintings are by the Baroque Dutch artist Gerard ter Borch.

If anyone wants sheet music for this just ask me. It would be a fun little piece for a beginning pianist. 

rondo no. 1

Hello again! I thought I'd share a little summer project with everyone. I'm a music student, and as I'm sure you've figured out I love everything baroque. I loved learning theory at school, and decided to write a short little baroque-spirited rondo! This could be performed on a keyboard instrument, or perhaps a soprano and alto instrument duet. I'm thinking about playing each part on recorder and putting it together. I love baroque recorder.

The pictures accompanying the music depict everyday people from the period (some earlier, some later baroque.) Please let me know what you think in the comments!

Thanks for any input :)

P.S.  If you want the sheet music for this, just let me know. It would make a nice beginning pianist piece.
