Another Day in Paradise

Another Day in Paradise

Another Day In Paradise-Chamber-Solo-Violin-Landis Maitland-Whitelaw

Chamber-Solo-Violin.

This piece was written while at anchor on a sailboat in a cove in Barbuda in the Caribbean, on April 2008. While lounging on the boat I would feel the movement of the waves, see fish jumping out of the water being chased by a turtle with the sun coming down and being cooled by a gentle breeze. Another day in Paradise.

Clarineting in G Minor

clarineting in G Minor - Landis Maitland-Whitelaw

I composed Clarineting in G Minor to supplement the study of the G minor scale. This became a fun exercise in not only using the G minor scale but in developing techniques for the player. It is a fun and easy listening piece.
