A french musician from Chicago
Hi all,
I'm a french musician and I've been living in Chicago for a year.I have a classical training (piano, harmony, counterpoint) and I've been playing jazz for 17 years.I also made some music for short film ( check my website).
Frederick, I listened to your symphonic poem and your work for brass and Organ : it's beautiful music, very dramatic, deeply emotional. You prove that one can still write in the romantic idiom and telling new interesting things. It's amazing to see such a young composer like you being performed by great orchestra and conductor ! How did this happen?Is your symphonic poem available on disc?
I'm a huge fan of late romantic nordic music associated with the wild landscapes : Sibelius and Nielsen of course but also Langgaard, Atterberg, sallinen and especially Allan Pettersson ( not so romantic!).
What could be better to introduce myself than a piece of muisc.below is the link (streaming) of my last orchestral piece entitled "Chicago, the song of a great City"
http://alexmillet.free.fr/Chicago192.m3u
It's a piece inspired by the city and its people; it's light music in the style of Walton and John Williams : easy to listen and to understand.
It's only the mock-up made with computers and sound libraries, so don't expect a very realistic sound.
