A description, eh? How does one describe themselves really? I mean, I could sit here and expand my ego more and more OR I could just write my music and push for its performance. Which would I rather do? I am a composer. I spend a large amount of my day and night composing music. If anyone would like to know more, feel free to follow and leave me a comment.

Orchestral Work.
Someone on my forum yesterday, commented rather harshly on a work of mine stating that it was rhythmically inflexible. So in response to him, I am working on an orchestral work with the goal of presenting one chord that slowly evolves and changes every 8 bars to eventually come back at the very end. To accentuate and provide interest to the piece: I use alteration in rhythm within the percussion (triangle, timpani, glockenspiel, and slapstick). The rhythm of the sustained chord I also alter slowly every 8 bars presenting new rhythms AND accentuating the chord with a motif that changes as it goes from instrument to instrument (first winds, then violins and clarinet, then horns/viola/violoncello... etc.) So far its a very interesting piece.
