Music Demos
Here are some samples of my work. Most of these examples are Orchestral arrangements using GigaStudio sampling with the Vienna Symphonic Library and other professional grade sample libraries to emulate a live orchestra. They are intended as dramatic underscrore or other cinematic uses. Depending on the file size you may need to let it download a sec. Please be patient, the music is worth the short wait - Enjoy!
