Circus Music

Post by mazz » Thu Mar 29, 2007 12:44 pm

Hello,I just submitted the piece "Two Left Feet Waltz" to this Dispatch Listing:Upbeat CAROUSEL/CALLIOPE MUSIC INSTRUMENTALS are needed by the President of a Los Angeles-based Publishing Co. Think music from a circus or carnival; from a horse carousel ride; and from 1950s/1960s children’s TV shows (e.g. the Howdy Doody Show theme). That’s the general vibe they’re seeking. While they want tracks that relate to/represent the innocence of children, they also want these tracks to appeal to adults. Your instrumentals must be at least 1:30 in length.My take on this was to have the calliope being played along with a low budget circus band. I found a steam calliope sample online so you can hear the steam in the melody and chords. I was trying to get a fun, herky-jerky feeling, just a lilttle off kilter. www.johnmazzei.comFeedback solicited.Enjoy,Mazz

imagine if John Williams and Trent Reznor met at Bernard Hermann's for lunch and Brian Eno was the head chef!
