(revised audio samples and title!)
So, who knew you have to manually enter enclosure links in order for multiple files to show up on a podcast? Well, perhaps Oby knew. And Google Help sure knew. You learn something new every day. Thanks for the vigilant watch!...
Feel free to delete the old #3/4.

Malfi Court Music 3
MP3
Here's a big round of short samples, all from the Duchess of Malfi, playing now through Sunday at CUA. It's a sort of Malfi Sampler Platter, if you will. Enjoy!
* Gates shutting
* 4 cannon shots in the distance
* Creepy "revealing of dead bodies" sound
* Malfi Court Music #3 (different from the previous music)
This last one, the Malfi music, is one of my favorites, largely because I very much enjoy how realistic the solo woodwinds sound - at least to my ears! What do you think?
So, not many comments on last week's New Music Appetizer. Maybe the variety of this week's selection will help that!
I've got a new project in the works, possibly collaborating with some others, but more on that later!

New Music Appetizer Week #3 - Duchess of Malfi Court Music
Malfi Court 2 samples
MP3
PDF
Two days late, I realize, but I hope you'll forgive me. It is tech week, after all!
This week you get Malfi Court 2 samples, another sneak-peek into the sounds of Duchess of Malfi, playing Feb. 12-15 at Catholic University in DC. The MP3 contains two different settings of the melody "Rose, Red". All sounds are (quite obviously) synthesized.
The second setting, which starts after :22 or so, has some pretty crappy synth strings on it. (Just wait until that last chord... ew!) But that's what you get here on New Music Appetizer - freshly-made music that doesn't hide its first draft qualities!
See the PDF for the melody and lyrics.
You have two assignments this week:
1.) Make one suggestion for improvement, and
2.) Find one audio-tech savvy person you know, and ask her/him to listen to and comment on this sample.
Mmmm... Appetizers.

New Music Appetizer Week #2 - Duchess of Malfi waves-breath-blood (link works now)
waves-breath-blood
MP3
No score this time. Here's my first draft of one of the sounds I'm creating for Duchess of Malfi. I'm calling this waves-breath-blood. It uses a mixture of found, recorded, synthesized, and (eventually) live sources to create a sort of soundscape.
Now, how do I make this sound cooler and creepier, yet less contrived, artificial, and distractingly intentioned? Thoughts?
The show runs February 12-15 at Catholic University of America in Washington, DC, and is directed by Ryan Whinnem. Check it out!
Okay, your turn. If you're intrigued by what you hear on my New Music Appetizer series, why not let me know by e-mail? Better yet, subscribe to my blog's podcast for automatic updates. (right side of the screen)
