MIDI playback

​I consider this track to be an experimentation in instrumental layering, but within the confines of a short duration and looping.

MIDI Playback

​I originally created this theme last year as part of a long soundtrack to accompany tabletop gaming sessions. When that project failed (because I had composed too many electronic tracks that made no sense), I went back and re-orchestrated the piece. This music is meant to evoke something from an RPG or MMORPG.

These are the two complete pieces that I originally wrote as Counterpoint assignments as an undergraduate in 2010. Originally written for keyboard, I later changed the instrumentation to string instruments in February 2019:

"Menuet," for violins and cellos
​"Sarabande," for strings (violins, violas and cellos)

MIDI Playback

​This is is the first in a series of pieces that I am writing and revising as possible video game music with different instrumentation. Each of these pieces will be quite short, so I will have them loop about 2 or 3 times and include a fade-out.

Three Sonatas (2019)

for toy piano

NOTE: The MIDI Playback for these pieces uses a celesta instead of a toy piano, because Finale does not have a "Toy Piano" in their Instrument List.

I originally planned for this work to consist of 5 to 10 sonata da camera (each with short "A" and "B" sections). However, I grew a bit dissatisfied with the strict serial method of composition and timbre and settled on the three pieces instead. While I had previously uploaded these pieces in separate videos, this current video serves as an electronically realized version of all three toy piano sonatas. They are meant to be performed on a 37-key toy piano.

for Baritone and Piano

Music by Anthony L. Sanchez (b. 1988)

Text by Percy Bysshe Shelly (1792-1822)

NOTE: The music for this video uses MIDI playback. I used a cello sound for the recording to replace the annoying "Wah" effect of the vocal part in Finale.
