New Audio File

Posted by Peter on May 23rd, 2009

This is actually a first for me. I have posted a recent recording of my sacred SATB choral anthem, I Heard the Voice of Jesus Say, on my music page. This recording was made back on May 5th at the annual student composition recital at Bob Jones University which I was a part of. The recording features the BJU Chorale (Warren Cook directing) and yours truly at the piano. I think it came out really, really nicely (considering they read through it only once for about 10 mins. just prior to the recital) :) Enjoy!

What I’m Listening To

Every now and then, I pick up new music from iTunes or have CDs gifted to me. Here’s some of my newest additions to my music library that I’m really enjoying presently. Read the rest of this entry »

Composition Recital Invitation

Posted by Peter on April 25th, 2009

composition recital

Come and support new, original music from rising composers next Tuesday, May 5th at 5pm in War Memorial Chapel. There will be works performed by 9 current BJU undergrad and grad students (including myself!) - students of Dan Forrest and Joan Pinkston. The only drawback is that it is during exam week. But you’ll probably need a break from your cramming and studying, so make plans to come to a recital you won’t regret going to.

What Dreams May Come

Posted by Peter on April 16th, 2009

Come hear my choir - the BJU Concert Choir - Friday night (tomorrow!) at 7pm in War Memorial Chapel. We’ll be performing a delightful program of “sleep” music. The title of the concert is “What Dreams May Come.” Works include:

  • Slumber Time - Norman Luboff
  • O Schone Nacht - Brahms
  • Soneto de la Noche - Morten Lauridsen
  • Stopping by Woods on a Snowy Evening - Randall Thompson
  • Sleep - Eric Whitacre
  • Seal Lullaby - Eric Whitacre
  • Much more…

Can you think of a better way to start your weekend? I submit that you can not.

My New Dorm Studio

Posted by Peter on April 8th, 2009

In preparation for my grad degree in composition, I decided it was time to look around for a MIDI keyboard to make notation a bit easier for myself. So my parents and I started scouting the web and found a terrific deal on eBay.

My Dorm Studio

Here it is. My new M-Audio KeyStudio 49i, complete with Pro Tools M Powered 8!! Needless to say, I didn’t get any homework done this afternoon after I picked it up from the post office. Normally this keyboard doesn’t ship with Pro Tools - you have to buy it separately (about $300 from m-audio’s website). But we were able to get the keyboard I wanted with the software just “thrown in” for good measure for less than the normal selling price of the keyboard itself. Not a bad deal, eh?

Pro Tools M-Powered 8

I haven’t much chance to do much with it yet, but I have tried it out. I’ll let you know later what I really think of it - although my first impression is pretty much… “SWEET!” Thanks Dad and Mom for the early graduation present!
