Pretty for Deodorant: Three Short Pieces

Pretty for Deodorant: Three Short Pieces

4 minutes 4 seconds| Somewhere in the middle of writing this piece I realized I was channeling Paul Hindemith. This composition was started on Christmas Day 2009, and was my first use of classical instruments in a Garageband composition.

Several “classical” pieces were composed over the next several months. Some, like Pretty for Deodorant, were contemporary in being inspired by the sparse, whimsical architecture of Igor Stavinsky and the aforementioned Hindemith. Six months after these detours, I returned to my pop-rock hybrid formula, which became more exploratory by proximity of these developments.
