Autumn's Passacaglia- Original Composition

Published 2024-05-30
Though I've been composing for over five years, this is the first time I'm uploading any of it (Though it certainly won't be the last.) Being that it's my first Orchestral composition, I'd say Autumn's is a good opportunity to break some ground for me!

Starting as a four-bar concept loop I flippantly made in 2018, Autumn's Passacaglia eventually morphed into this strange 'Half-Passacaglia' strophic piece that evolves with each of its eight strains. It retains the feel of Romantic-era orchestral music, though it grows more and more into my Portmodern style as it goes along, cranking up the dissonance. It is the subject of the 'Snake Wearing Pants' video which is right here:    • Musical Form is a Snake Wearing Pants  .

The synthesized orchestra was done using a combination of the MuseSounds engine and some meddling in Logic Pro. Due to the sheer amount of stems, you may get some distortion. Sorry about that, I did my best!
