Ecrit le 2011-11-09 par Pack Dylan 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
Ecrit le 2011-02-06 par Pack Dylan 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!
I'm working on a new piece!
Ecrit le 2010-11-08 par Pack Dylan At my school, in the spring,
the orchestra and the band
come together to form a
symphonic orchestra. I'm
a player in that, so I decided
to rearrange
Rachmaninoff's Prelude in
C# Minor for an orchestra. If
anyone would like a copy of
the piece, please be patient.
Sometime this week it should
be done. I've got some
other symphony band pieces,
and some more orchestral
pieces in the works as well.
