My latest work....

Well, as a composition major, I got to premiere one of my newest compositions at my university's New Music '06 concert! I figured I'd share it here. It's not really a
film
cue, but more of a concert piece.
Let me warn you, the saxophonist wasn't that good, and he did the best he could. So some of the high notes are a little...questionable. Also, the cadenza was a little on the slow side. But enjoy it nonetheless!
Rhapsody for Alto Saxophone and Piano

An IMDb user praising this "diverse" and "complex" music:
"Look at the incredible variety of themes he does - from Gladiator, a masterpiece, to Matchstick Men, a fun, jazzy style, then Pirates - a theme that moviegoers (however musically inclined they may be) will never forget. These scores are not only more diverse, but more complex as well." :-\

Cool stuff. I can imagine that fitting an older-style movie... noir, classic-look, or something like that... maybe a musical (one of the parts where they aren't singing).
Good luck in the concert...

I'm amazed at all the different styles you guys can compose in! This fits perfectly!
The piano, everything.

^Wow, thanks guys!
djr33, I know what you mean about the noir stuff. If I have to compare it to a soundtrack, I'd say it has a bit of "Catch Me if You Can" in it.
Not that I'm one to copy John Williams' work! That wasn't my intention, lol.
I wish I could devote my time to some of the film score oppurtunities here, but my studies are really crazy right now. I haven't even taken Film Score at my university, lol. But one day....

Dr. Thompson on saxophone?? Questionable?? Never...
I love this piece though, only two qualms:
- The recording is mediocre, at best
- The gosh freakin a piano lid was down!!!!!!
Other than that, awesome piece
