Current Project

I'm working on a little project for my Music Theory class. I have to arrange 3 more concert band arrangements. So far, I have arranged Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles, Fountain of Dreams, and Apologize (One Republic).


Today in class, I submitted my arrangement of Apologize, by One Republic. Needless to say, I got a good grade, as usual. Anyways, I have to back and make some minor edits to it first. I need to add more variety to the lower instrument parts. After I do this, I can upload it somewhere if anybody wants it.

Also, I'm doing 3 more concert band arrangements for my Music Theory Class. I'm thinking of doing Secrets by One Republic, Paradise, by Coldplay, and I'm not sure about the last one yet. I'll decide soon.

Ocarina Duets

I have arranged two Ocarina duet pieces for me and a friend of mine. Our music teacher is currently out sick, so my friend and I wanted some music to practice. Thus, I made two nice arrangements.

The first arrangement is the Lavender Town theme from Pokemon Red and Blue versions. I titled it "avender Syndrome", after the case of the children suicides in Japan. This one uses two parts

The sescond piece is the remake, which is the Lavender Town theme from Pokemon Gold and Silver versions. This one sounds kinda pretty, rather than very sad sounding. This piece only has 1 part, but it gets doubled.

I'll be uploading these two pieces on Ichigios, and Josh Agarrado's site after me and my friend learn them. They are for Ocarina, but they can also be played on Flute.

I will be managing sheet music on two online communities

Just letting you guys all know that I will be helping manage sheet music sections on two websites that both have very large communities One is for a anime fan base the other is for a video game fan base. I can't tell you which sits, or which series', as I don't want to spoil it. I'm sure you guys will like it. After all, what's better than having me manage an entire sheet music section of a website? I'll update when I'm allowed to say what it is.

BIG NEWS!! My first concert band arrangement.

I was talking to my band teacher today, and he's giving me a major opportunity. I just started my spring break today, and I'm going to be working on a concert band arrangement over the break. When I get back from spring break, I'll submit it to him, and he'll judge how good it is. If he thinks it's good enough, the class will sightread the piece. This is my first concert band arrangement, so it''s pretty exciting! The piece I'll be arranging is called Ballad Of The Goddess, and it's from The Legend Of Zelda: Skyward Sword.

Also, I'm going to be asking my band teacher if he'd be willing to let me conduct this piece. I conducted along to my rough copy of the sheets earlier while playing an MIDI file of it, and it's pretty simple to do. Hopefully all goes in my favor. Also, I might try and upload a video of me conducting it if I'm able to.

Pumped Up Kicks almost finished

Posting to let you guys know I'm almost done arranging Pumped Up Kicks by Foster The People for Alto Sax. The actual sheets are finished, but I need to play them myself to decide if they need editing or not. I'll update you all on it soon.

Project SoundLife back up and running

I'm very happy to announce that Project SoundLife is now back up and running. I've recovered from my stroke for the most part, and I can now play my Alto Sax again. Finally. Now I will be making new arrangements again, and you might even get to see some composing action, and possibly some remixing!

Right now I'm working on some pretty popular songs, and you'll probably see me uploading them soon. I'll just have to find a place to host them since they aren't from Anime OST's or Video Game OST's. Yes, that's right. Ready for some Coldplay? Or would you rather hear something from Foster The People? How about some Maroon 5? Your likely to be getting all of those. I'll most likely be making a site though to host those sheets on. I'll update you all again when it's ready.

twitter, Tumblr, and why I haven't posted in a while

Hello everybody, it's been a while sine my last update. I've just been so busy lately. I haven't made any new arrangements since before February 8th, as I've been recovering from my stroke/seizure. I'm almost finished my recovering, and then I'll get back to my arrangements. Until then, anything I upload is projects of started before then, although I might do a few things. I'll let you know when I get back to work.

Until then, you can follow me on Twitter: @SaxAppeal96
