Majesty and Tribulation —

 A “micro”-symphony in four movements.  

I stitched together some previous compositions and added an orchestrated scherzo to make this mini-symphony (just under sixteen minutes).  I hope some can see the symbolism.  

The art is among my favorite; 19th century Edwardian and Symbolist works with a few Romantic landscape paintings.   Some of the engravings and etchings are from my collection accumulated over the years.

(If you think it’s worthy, please give it a “thumbs up” as I think that increases its exposure).

Majesty and Tribulation



This is a piece I originally wrote for piano with eventual orchestration in mind.  

Special thanks to contributors to Pixabay and Pexels for some stock footage and to Franco at the Fiverr website for orchestrating the work to my specs.

There are two versions uploaded. One has more engaging video footage but some terrible audio distortion in places (thanks to the iMovie app).  The other is less visually engaging but has a clean audio track.
