Musical Compositions

I have been learning a bit of music composition, and as I believe in free exchange of media content, here are some of my experiments. I'm thankful to my composition teacher, Jacques Paul Grivaz, who advised me during these works.

I have composed these pieces using Rosegarden, typeset them using LilyPond, and mixed the recordings with Ardour. Beside this page, I distribute the scores on the Mutopia Project and the recordings on Jamendo.
