New Music

Also see posts on the home page for more recent additions such as my 2024 Mostly Modern Festival chamber work Normalizing Evil.  A heads up that American Modern Ensemble and other professional musicians recorded over an hour of new and reorchestrated music in mid November 2024 for my third album which will be released in early 2025.. 
In September 2023 I got back some recordings of my music from the June 2023 Mostly Modern Festival at www.mostlymodernprojects.org.
The low resolution is fine for listening online. These cannot be sold, but shared crediting the Mostly Modern Festival, and Bill Taylor as the composer.

Just above is my original 2021 contribution (using synthesized instruments) to the Lucy mission to the Trojan asteroids that lead and follow Jupiter, using a motif the Lucy team created.  “Lucy Soundscape” is pieces by a number of composers.  #NASALucySoundscape will get you there….

Just above is a revision performed by real musicians: Katie Sheele, oboe; Sita Chay, violin I; Lavivia, violin II, Artie Dibble, Viola; Dave Eggar, cello

Eire Alive is one of several other pieces they played; this is my “history of Ireland in 8 and a half minutes”.   Performed March 17, 2023

Two pieces of mine were played at the Mostly Modern Festival in Saratoga Springs, NY in June.  Above are postings.  .

Check Sheet Music Plus and search my name for a number of piano pieces’ sheet music (and a few duets with other instruments) you can buy!  Here is the result of a search I did:    https://www.sheetmusicdirect.com/Search.aspx?query=Bill%20Taylor   which will give you my additions so far, amongst some other music.  Mine will have my name and match the pieces on my albums.

The Home page has audio and scores for two other pieces being recorded: Saratoga Salsa for horn, piano and percussion; and Swedish Brass Band Dream for brass quintet.  The recordings are being mixed and available on the new album when released.
