In many ways this music reminds me of KLIMPEREI, a French duo formed around 1985 by Françoise & Christophe Petchanat. Their own website states their music is often described as « toy-music, naïve, acoustic, experimental, minimal, childish, neo-classic, bizarre, avant-garde, lunaire… French toy-pop… boîte à jouets renversée… avan strange toy pop chamber music… ». I do not doubt Celloman’s Compositional Force’s seriousness but to be mentioned in the same breath as this French couple is praise enough.
I am a composer. I was brought up in Virginia and planning to pursue a musical degree in the future. I use MIDI and also piano for compositions so far. I have written for piano cello clarinet guitar voice. These are all small scale projects and I’m currently doing collaborations now. One was with Matt Alexander (Psychronic Continuum) and another will be Tena Mosher. Another will be Caroline Moore and another will be Michael David Sherwood. Am hoping for an increase in exposure but before I join anything or start to sell I am hoping to hone my skills at JMU’s Composition dept.
