Halloween
on: October 31, 2025, 11:24:35 PM
From a recent recording session.

This piece began life as an improvisation, but I wrote it out by ear and I'm now viewing it as a fully-fledged composition.

Rather a dark piece, with the main connecting motifs being based around a relentless triplet funeral march, growing more animated, and the Dies Irae, which emerges in its full form after the tritone-based climax.
