Music

I like to spend some of my free time playing music and messing with music software. I'm fond of big band swing and chiptune from old computer games. I've played clarinet for over 15 years, and I also have a double ocarina from STL Ocarina that I like to carry around.

Here are some things I've transcribed, arranged, or otherwise copied in MuseScore. Some are directly copied from old songbooks I saw on the Internet Archive, others from game soundtracks or are just pieces that I'm interested in.


Casino Calavera is a song from the soundtrack of the game, Grim Fandango. I started this in 2015 for use in my Highschool Jazz band, but have touched it up a little since then. I don't really know how to arrange percussion, so I apologize for how lacking that is.

Hi-Tone Fandango is another song from Grim Fandango.

Oh! What a Thrill is a swing song composed by Al Hoffman and published in 1931. I took a liking to it when I found a recording from the Jack Denny orchestra, and so I made this transcription of the song.

We're All Going Calling on the Kaiser, a war-time song that I became interested in because of its use in WW1 Game Series Verdun before they removed it. Found on the Internet Archive and copied.

Hydrangea is a great chiptune song for the Nintendo Famicom by TQ-Jam. I've had this stuck in my head for ages.

Maid of the Mist. I transcribed this for my section because I was having trouble reading the pages we were given.
