This is likely my most Kapustin-esque piece yet - Golden Surge!
#32
Came up with another short prelude today: Prelude in G Minor!
#33
If you liked some of the bagatelles in my Advent Calendar last year, you might like this, too, as it's in roughly the same style as the jazz mini-pieces in there: my Jazz Miniature in E Flat Major!
#34
Turns out I need more practice composing slow music, so I composed this Slow Minuet in B Flat Major today!
#35
Here's a pretty darn fast piece - Toccata No. 3 in C Minor ("Record Speed")!

Here's my first composition of 2023 - Beachside Races for the tropical beach racetrack of a hypothetical racing game!

Yet another Advent, yet another two-pianist arrangement of a public domain Christmas carol...this year, it's "Deck the Halls"'s turn with Deck Those Jazzy Halls!

Did this set of rockin' variations on Paganini's Caprice in A Minor, Op. 24, No. 1 for a contest, actually - here's Romp On Paganini!

This monothematic sonata-allegro is actually in a syncopated, more pop-like style for a change, and just like most other monothematic sonata-allegros, its first and second theme groups diverge quite quickly from their shared opening phrase - here's my latest piece, Sonata-Allegro in C Major ("One Start, Many Paths")!

Wow, this is my first rag in over 4 years...here's that rag, Trick-or-Treat Rag!

NinSheetMusic's latest arrangement contest just announced winners, so now I can finally post this!

The Azure Tree Stands in Mourning

It's a more relaxing, "de-bossified" arrangement of "The Azure Arbitrator", the final boss theme of The Legend of Heroes: Trails to Azure.

Might be redundant given the post above, but here's my latest composition - the jazz-influenced Waltz No. 2 in C Major!

Welp, looks like I hit the character limit for the 1st post - here's where my latest compositions are listed!

Classical
Waltz No. 2 in C Major
Composed for a contest, this jazz-influenced waltz is based on a not-so-orthodox chord progression involving â™­VII-V.

Sonata-Allegro in C Major ("One Start, Many Paths")
Like some others, this sonata-allegro has a monothematic exposition...that actually has its first and second theme groups both diverge quite quickly from their shared opening phrase, just like other monothematic sonata-allegros. Therefore nicknamed "One Start, Many Paths", this piece is syncopated, energetic, and optimistic.

Sonatina in G Minor
This light Scarlatti-like sonatina is not too demanding and is reminiscent of a lilting dance.

Slow Minuet in B Flat Major
This slower-than-average minuet carries its own elegance and grace.

Prelude in G Minor
This march-like prelude keeps a stiff upper lip but is fairly easy to play.

Quick Dance in D Minor
This swift dance makes dancers go at breakneck speed!

March in E Major
This Neoromantic march has some daring key changes.

Prelude in C Minor
With its rapid-note runs, this prelude can be tricky to play at times.

Sonata-Allegro in E Flat Minor ("Alla Scherzo")
Composed for a contest, this sonata-allegro is in the style of Chopin's scherzos.

Etude in G Sharp Minor ("Quintuplets")
This etude helps you practice quintuplets, occasionally with nasty cross-rhythms with the left hand.

Scherzo Classico
This lighthearted scherzo echoes the style of early Beethoven.

The Twelve Days of Christmas Collection
12 days of Christmas, 12 pieces (actually not all classical), all 24 keys!

Concert Band & Marching Band
Rolling Along March
In the style of turn-of-the-20th-century American marches, this march indeed merrily rolls along.

Ragtime
Trick-or-Treat Rag
This shockingly deliberate rag, composed for a contest, aims to evoke the atmosphere of trick-or-treating during Halloween.

Jazz
Jazz Miniature in E Flat Major
This jazz miniature gently prances around.

Golden Surge
This Kapustin-esque straight jazz piece constantly heads towards a brighter tomorrow.

Jazz Miniature in A Flat Major
This jazz miniature, while stodgier, still ambles around gently.

Desert Trip
Mostly based on a short B-C chord progression, this jazz trio piece sultrily weaves around and has an extended solo.

Cream Soda "Rag"
Influenced by Billy Joel's Root Beer Rag and Max Keenlyside's Caffeinated Rag, this straight jazz piece bounces along with foxtrot-like rhythms at a breakneck pace.

Jazz Miniature in D Flat Major
This jazz miniature gently ambles around.

Beach Capers
Eager and energetic, this piece bounces around like excited young beach-goers.

On Starscapes
Actually somewhere in between jazz and classical, this piece soars among the stars and is composed in the style of the Kirby series' more subdued themes - probably all by Hirokazu Ando.

Rock/Metal (Includes Crossovers)
Toccata No. 3 in C Minor ("Record Speed")
This classical-rock crossover piece blasts by at record speed.

Inflamed Story
This piece is influenced by the works of the bands Sound Horizon and Linked Horizon.

Worship
Uplift
True to its name, this is an uplifting worship song for solo piano.

Video Game Music Loops (With Special OST Endings)
Beachside Races (Racetrack Theme)
This is a tropical beach racetrack theme for a hypothetical racing game that does not (yet) exist. Yes, it's Mario Kart-influenced. Bars 40-52 (everything after the repeat) are the OST-only ending.
Despite being subtitled as a piano transcription, no other arrangements of this piece currently exist.

Carnival Round (Carnival Stage Theme)
This is a carnival theme for...any carnival, really. They could even be real carnivals!
Bars 33-48 (everything after the repeat) are the OST-only ending.

Cupcake Hero CST (Concept Soundtrack)
Spoiler
Results Theme
It's just an innocent results theme that plays after the victory jingle. Bars 17-18 (everything after the repeat) just might play as you exist the results screen.
Despite being subtitled as a piano transcription, no other arrangements of this piece currently exist.
[close]

Theme of the Wind Ninja (Special Boss Theme)
A special boss theme for a fan character I made - a wind ninja who moves as swiftly across the battlefield as this theme speeds by. Bars 26-34 (everything after the repeat) are the OST-only ending.
Despite being subtitled as a piano transcription, no other arrangements of this piece currently exist.

My first 8-bit composition (although I have tried an 8-bit arrangement before): 8-Bit Credits! Yeah, it's for a hypothetical video game.
