For writer-director Joe Badon's second feature, a psychological suspense film titled SISTER TEMPEST, I'm composing a score consisting of non-traditional instruments alongside familiar instruments played in unusual ways. These are three sketches I've created, along with stills and screen caps from the completed footage. The film features dream sequences, hallucinations, and flashbacks, with the score reflecting these altered states of mind.
For all three pieces of music, I've recorded each of the elements separately and mixed them together for best sound. The instrumentation of these sketches is as follows:
1. three wine glasses, pitched at A, F and F#
2. drum and gong played with friction mallets
3. extended piano, cello, horn
