This is the book number four: Numbers. This is a book of war... a cry of war. Yes! this one has a lot of Gustav Holst influence and the first chord is very like Mozart's Don Giovanni... tell me what you think about it please. thanks.
I love how you managed to make it sound like it was almost going to resolve into something that that would sound like Gershwin and then it goes a completely different direction- great stuff!
If Berlioz would've heard this piece.. he probably would have said that it was too vulgar (lol) too much percussion... but oh well I got very excited when I made this one... the tempos are not very well because its very hard!!!
Captures the romantic era spirit. The orchestration seemed good, but a little muddy in spots, I think because we need to get you a better orchestra sample pack... or maybe a real orchestra to play this, that will do it!

This is nothing to do with what I've been doing.. The truth is I was bored and turned on my roland juno-d and I started mixing up some sounds and well this is it, I know its not my musical area but wanted to try...
nice resolution at 1:40, intriguing impressionistic painting with your harmonic palette. Just enough tonal footing to keep my poor old classical ears quite happy. I'm back from a week vacation, and hope to start catching up on music again!
First of my rpm traks,, this year i am going to try to learn a bit about composing for midi orchestra, with that in mind i have began (in jan) to read several books on midi orchestration, orchestration and counterpoint,,, while these will probably…
A bit of improv done yesterday with my newly refurbished fretless guitar. Finally got the midi pickup to track almost right! Part of the sounds were gotten by rubbing a teaspoon on the strings.
one cool thing about piano pieces is that they lend themselves to being rearranged for other instruments, since the piano encompasses the entire range,,, this is a pared down version of my last weeks submission le baiser apres-midi = the afternoon…
i was trying to work on a piece for a shark video of mine, but this is what came out instead,, my piano moments collections are the small musical threads that emerge amongst/while i am working/thinking about other things,,,
first of all, thank you for your kind comments, it's always a pleasure to listen to you music, some time ago I downloaded several pieces of your music and I often listen to them.... very nice
Another Live performance with former band mates in Scartaglen back in 1988 on the NPR show Mountain Stage. This time a piece of Gaelic mouth music followed by 3 reels. Maybe the most complex arrangement of a set of tunes that we ever did.
playing with my eyes closed
rpm #4 2012
from about 2 min on it's a bit hot,, if anyone has some suggestions on how to balance the range, i would appreciate it r
rpm #3,, from a future themed piece to be called "the dark doll house" a place where yellow orange light drifts through soft gray curtains,,far away a child's laugh echos down the stair case,,

That first chord almost blew me out of my chair!. You certainly captured the mood of war
I love how you managed to make it sound like it was almost going to resolve into something that that would sound like Gershwin and then it goes a completely different direction- great stuff!
love the lower notes! 01:33!!! Great piece. I look forward to checking out more of your music.
How did I miss this one? Lovely! Great playing
This is an excellent piece. I love the melody and the tone of the piano.
I like the interplay between the clarinets and violins (violas?) And kirk is right, the cello is beautiful.
Siiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiiigh
Another great one Lalo! Those cello lines just before the end are just lovely
Another lovely piece, Lalo.
this is delightful music for this late night. gorgeous palette of sounds and melodies.

very nice - drakonis comments are right on the money - you found a sweet spot between some common styles, and mode something v. fresh!
