Based in Colorado, Gary Grundei is a composer, pianist, and sound designer working in the Dramatic, Classical, Neoclassical, and Minimalist genres. His work ranges from tongue-in-cheek sarcasm to deep and sorrowful longing, from ethereal and discordant ambience to foreboding stringed suspense. Gary's music is also largely recorded with live instruments, not samples. His credits include New York Stage and Film, Kennedy Center, and the Denver Broncos.
Something here is inevitable. Real strings and soprano sax build a dark tension and then fall back for the unmasking. A little medieval, a little Shakespearian; perfect for a historical action piece with culture. Instrumental, Action, Orchestral Action
A string quartet spaciously reveals a romantic and intimate truth. It's gorgeous and sincere, with sweeping sadness. Great for the theatre, period pieces (1700s-1800s), dramatic film, BBC. Instrumental, Dramatic, Romantic Music
Early morning in the natural world. Soprano sax sings a smooth and sweet melody over the easy tilting of a string quartet. Great for period pieces (1800s) and poignant animation, also observation of nature. Charming and a little sad. Instrumental, Dramatic, Tender music
Regal and mournful, the backdrop for a unfortunate villain's fall. Cello plays loss expressively over a half-sinister organ. Great for historical pieces, medieval dramas, royalty and high tragedy. Shakespearean. Instrumental, Dramatic, Sad Music
A slow and sorrowful build culminates in a cello expression of deep feeling. The quartet responds. After the initial mourning, the piece becomes formal, with a sense of movement and decision. Great for moments of loss that lead to a change of energy. Instrumental, Dramatic, Sad Music
Unsettling soprano sax calls over a repetitive and uneasy string quartet. Eerie, yet nostalgic. Good for period pieces (1700s-1800s), dramatic film, nature, BBC, renaissance. Instrumental, Dramatic, Calm Edgy
A slightly sinister soprano saxophone, played like a clarinet, takes its first awkward flight with the support of a string quartet. The results are a sweet song of home. Great for animation, evocative and full of character. The clumsiness of an ugly duckling deeply sweetens. Instrumental, Dramatic, Whimsical Music
