Musical arranging is the bridge between composition and production, and my pursuit of both very naturally drove me to arrange music often. I have arranged by myself and in groups, for both my own compositions and those written by others, and for a wide variety of instrumentations and ensemble styles. I frequently arrange the music I produce and always strive to create an arrangement which best highlights the core essence of the song or piece. Having studied virtual orchestration and arranging, I can create realistic arrangements within a DAW using software instruments, while I am also able to create professional charts using notation software such as Sibelius, Notion, and Finale to have parts recorded by real musicians. I have provided examples of my arranging and orchestration work below.
