this was the first ode i wrote for my friend David Stuart, he said he wanted an orchestral piece with blast beats, blast beats are a type of drumming that is found in certain sub-genres of heavy metal music, mainly death metal which i am a big fan of. this is not nessesarily a serious piece but i found the idea of it very fun.it is scored for: 2 Horns, tenor and bass trombone, tuba, timpani, glockenspiel, a metal drum kit and strings.heres the link to the youtube video:
