Welcome to my channel. This channel will be primarily dedicated to my original music compositions, though occasionally I will upload videos related to classical music in general or anything else (music or non-music) that I may wish to share to help others. My instruments are piano, viola, guitar, and voice. I did not major in music in college, but I have had private lessons in composition, orchestration, counterpoint, and instrument performance. Most of what I have learned on the composition side comes from self-guided study: reading textbooks, completing orchestration exercises, and score reading. In 1999 I published my first score, "Russian Suite for Violin and Viola". In 2000, the University of Dallas Collegium Cantorum sang my "Ave Verum Corpus."

Improvisation no. 2 ("Sonatina" for Organ)
มุมมอง 358 หลายเดือนก่อน
This is the second of two keyboard improvisations I played and recorded around 1999. This was recorded by me playing on a Roland XP-80 keyboard. Here are the timestamps of the movements: 0:00 First Movement 2:34 Second Movement 3:38 Third Movement Although the piece was completely improvised and is largely freeform, there are some thematic connections between the movements. Here are some key po...
Rhapsody for Piano (Improvisation)
มุมมอง 388 หลายเดือนก่อน
This video features me doing two things on TH-cam I have not done before. I have so far never worked with video, only still shots. I have never uploaded anything featuring me playing. This composition represents my playing a Yamaha P-200 Clavinova plugged into a computer. This performance is from some 25 years ago and features me completely improvising at the keyboard, but there is kind of a ma...
Romance in a Dangerous World by Marc Caroul / Ryan Leach January 2024 Composing Competition
มุมมอง 7610 หลายเดือนก่อน
For this competition, contestants were to write music to fit the image "Cyberpunk Love Story" by Hardy Fowler. For this track I placed greater emphasis on the word cyberpunk which implies a dystopian future. Dystopian futures are to me terrifying (and perhaps all too imminent with all this AI) so therein lies the reason for the more suspenseful tone in the beginning, but the main tense theme do...
Prelude in B Major
มุมมอง 48ปีที่แล้ว
This is part of a series of preludes for solo piano I composed in my 20's. It is the last prelude I composed in my cycle of eight but the first I composed using music notation software (the others are on pencil and staff paper.) Most of my first attempts at serious composition were these solo piano preludes. I hope to post the rest in due time. (c) 1997 Marc Caroul Piano: Garritan Abbey Road CF...

Fugue for piano in two voices
มุมมอง 69ปีที่แล้ว
This is a repost of my fugue for piano in 2 voices originally posted on my SoundCloud except here I have added a touch of reverb and EQ and have created a score video. An interesting aspect of this fugue is that the answer to the subject begins on the half-beat rather than on the beat. Happy listening.

Vienna Composer Contest 2023 (Round 1): "30-Second Fugue" by Marc Caroul
มุมมอง 106ปีที่แล้ว
Vienna Symphonic Library is hosting a 3-round composer competition. For Round 1, contestants were to write a piece exactly 30 seconds long using only Vienna's free instruments. Although the free instruments have limited use, they are really quite good. I recommend that you pick them up if you are a composer. Here is the list of the seven free instruments (I ended up using all 7 for this my Roun...
Symphonina no. 1 in Eb Major for piano and orchestra

Music Notes This was my entry into the 2022 Best Symphonina of the Year Competition. While I did not win the grand prize or the runner-up prize, mine along with two others were recognized by the judges as a submission of distinction. I had intended to redo the recording giving it the "full DAW treatment", but I am having difficulty finding the time at the moment. I will eventually get around to...
Ave Verum Corpus

This is my setting of this traditional, sacred liturgical text. It was sung by the University of Dallas Collegium Cantorum under the direction of Marilyn Walker at St. Luke Catholic Church in Irving, TX, on December 2, 2000.
Night Ride and Green Sky composed by Marc Caroul (Ryan Leach October 2022 Composing Competition)
มุมมอง 3052 ปีที่แล้ว
This is my entry for the Ryan Leach October 2022 Composing Competition composed for small orchestra. It begins as a fugue for strings before the other instruments join in with other material. The biggest challenge to this competition was trying to come up with music that sounds complete within the 90-second limit. I retained the Note Performer 3.0 playback for the audio since all of the entries...
