Eli Evans SoundcloudCircle Of HeavenI wrote a novel, "Inside Every Circle" and in that novel there is a summer solstice ceremony called the "adumbration of the heavens" where adherents of a blood deity dance in the sun for hours in concentric rings to decide which of them gets the honor of being sacrificed so they can ascend and live forever among the stars.

The real ceremony would go through 29 cycles and last...

Wheels hammer lopsided rhythms down the track, repetitive yet evolving. Nnatural wonders parade by: wandering streams, shocks of birch and aspen, bear and moose under sprawling gray skies. We watch round every bend, as any moment it might peek through, a monstrous wave struck by a magic harpoon, frozen, cresting forever over the lonely tundra: Denali, the âGreat One.â
Inspired by a train ride in Alaska. Somehow repetitive and exciting at the same time. 11/8 (3/8+3/8+3/8+2/8) time signature. Watch the video at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DfBC5i06xxE

Eli Evans SoundcloudOELLGIA - Duet for Piano and OboeThe entire piece, both solo and accompaniment use only 6 pitches: (C, D, E, G, Ab, Bb). Why? These are the pitches my wife and I have tattooed on our necks (but transposed down a half step so it doesn't have to be in C#!) Details on why those notes here: https://elievans.music.blog/2020/02/17/we-are-a-matched-set/
Sheet music available on request.
Soloist in this recording is Juan Rosales from Costa Rica. If you want to hire him, you can find his Fiverr profile here: https://www.fiverr.com/juanrosales767/record-an-amazing-oboe-solo

Eli Evans SoundcloudLament For Cello And Female VoiceA sad, poignant song. Seems like it would be at home in a requiem. (I was probably thinking of Faure's Requiem some.)
Created for the Composer Challenge: Dice roll melody challenge. Melodic notes are only E, F, G, Ab, and Bb. There isn't a key in this so much as a tonal center around Bb. The scale would be something like sharp 4+flat 7. All the chords are built from stacks of perfect fifths.
Cello is Cinesamles Tina Guo Legato Cello. Soprano is from EastWest's Voices of Opera. The text is just random words. The rest of the orchestra is French...

Eli Evans SoundcloudShades (Throwback)This is the first track off of the first cassette tape I ever compiled, for my mom, back in 1992. I made it on a Yamaha PSR-500 keyboard that I bought with my summer job money. I'm not holding up as something great, just something that I did when I was really young. (The picture is me, from the local paper.)

Eli Evans SoundcloudCCP 30 - Sun - Solar ProminenceMay 2019 Composer Club 30-second challenge: Sun. I decided to imagine a documentary about the sun, where we cut away from the narration for a short moment and watch a gigantic solar flare erupt into space. The text is "helios" (Greek for "sun") and
Îż ΟλÎčÎżÏ Î»ÎŹÎŒÏΔÎč λαΌÏÏÎŹ ho helios lampei lampra, "the sun shines brightly". The last word is "phos," LIGHT.
Made with FL Studio 20, EastWest Hollywood Orchestra, and a few woodwind sounds from Spitfire Audio Studio Woodwinds.

Eli Evans SoundcloudDead Man WalkingImagine a condemned man bitterly explaining to the person who is interviewing him just before his execution how nobody, even the interviewer, really cares if he is guilty or innocent, or whether he ends up in Heaven or Hell once he's dead.
I started playing around with some polyrhythmic drum lines, and it ended up sounding like an old-timey rootsy blues rhythm (natch), so I went with it. The time signature is 15/4, because that's where the periods of all the drums align. The entire piece sticks on one chord, Bm7. Blues is not my area, FWIW. This is an old...

Eli Evans SoundcloudReintegration - Duet for 2 FlutesA loved one had a major mental health break, got some better medicine, and started back on a path to recovery. I wrote this in the middle of it all. Comes in three sections: 1) a little off; 2) increasingly manic; 3) reintegration.
Duet for two flutes, in Bb major.

Eli Evans SoundcloudCourderoy Sideburns (International Man of Mysteriousness)Was asked to make a theme for a "spy-themed adventure series for ages 5-8". This one didn't make the cut, because it was too "corduroy pants and long sideburns." I think that would be a pretty cool character name, though, "Courderoy Sideburns." (And yes, I know it's spelled wrong. That's part of the fun.) So now you can imagine the retro cartoon series this might be the theme for.
