Every so often, I find myself hitting metaphorical roadblocks while working on my serious compositions. In an attempt to refresh my mind and recharge my creative stamina, I decided to try absolutely letting go and “free write” per se on a blank orchestral template, without concern about the complexity, originality, or quality of the music.

That exercise produced this, a most banal orchestral score, loosely resembling a cinematic soundtrack. Regardless, this exercise proved successful and I plan to continue using this strategy for any future snags.
