Musical Compositions

A musical interpretation of Franz Kafka's Letters to Milena, showing his infatuation despite living such a tormented life. The piece reflects his oscillating emotions through a four-note motive repeated with melodic and harmonic variations. It begins with a melancholic chorus featuring tense harmony, then moves to explorations of various emotions with delicate, frequently changing harmonies.

Written as a musical accompaniment for Marina's character in BCA Theater's production of Pericles. The scene depicts Marina reuniting with her father Pericles after 14 years apart—neither recognizing each other. Marina, known for her singing, was brought to uplift Pericles from his grief. Having gained her experience in a 1930's brothel, the piece captures that era with a smoky, smooth, and simple piano accompaniment. The track is deliberately understated—flattering Marina's voice without extravagance.

A film debut composition written for a final scene that balances melancholy with vibrant, climactic energy. Featuring pop/rock instrumentation layered with jazz harmonies, the piece captures bittersweet emotion of parting while building to a crescendo. The fusion of pop elements with jazz chord progressions creates a unique landscape that's emotionally resonant and compelling.
