Twelfth Night

by William Shakespeare
The Utah Shakespearean Festival 2007

Music composed by Joe Payne ©2007.

Quite a large project, consisting of fully composed music, adapted traditional violin solos, and music composed for live musicians and actors. Middle Eastern Gypsy Royalty was the concept. I found some evocative gypsy violin solos which I then re-edited almost from scratch and added orchestration (synth violins have come a long way, but still don't quite compete with the real thing). The live music was meant to have impact on a modern sensibility, so while not quite historically accurate, it does have energy, simplicity, and elegance that I felt was appropriate for the production. You definitely can't miss the Middle Eastern Flavor of this score. I am the performer on the live actors demo. The actual actors added qualities of their characters to the music infusing a theatrical energy to the live music that is missing in the demos.
