I started this blog as an attempt to chronicle my thought processes and other ideas and opinions that go into my compositions. As a modern composer, I draw inspiration from many things, from the music I hear in everyday life, to the masters that have come before me, to even the basest human emotions. Between this and my MySpace Music site, I hope to create new and different works, as well as a different way to view them. The thing I found most interesting in my musical study was how a composer's everyday experiences could effect their music. This blog is a modern man's attempt to display the mundane to extraordinary circumstances that produce music. I will never pretend to be anything more than what I am: a music nerd with a brain full of ideas with music as my language of choice. I listen to everything under the sun and find melodies and rhythms in the weirdest of places. I am unabashed in my love of music, especially modern choral music. The human voice is, to me, the most impressive instrument ever conceived, and most of my creations reflect my love of the human voice. I'll probably also do running commentary on pop culture as I see it, which usually seems to be mildly amusing.

Happy blogging!
