  • Images of China

    2008-12-02 6:28PM / 標準BLOG

    I just posted a video documenting my trip to China back in March. I've included breathtaking views, a slice of modern life, and some things I just thought were amusing.

    For the soundtrack, I used music from my Legendary Warriors album. It fits so well, it's almost as if I had written the music to those images. The CD also makes a perfect gift for the holidays, so I've lowered the price for the CD's by $3.
    To purchase the CD: http://cdbaby.com/cd/georgeshaw3

    I recommend clicking the link below, and watching the video in high quality:

  • ME: On MTV.

    2008-11-14 8:01AM / 標準BLOG

    Who says classical musicians can't ROCK? I always wondered what it would be like to rock out on stage in a rock band, and I finally did, and it was a thrill.

    And this Saturday, you can watch my brief moment of rock stardom when my band, MOZART'S BIATCH, performs onstage in MTV's "Rock Band Battle," on Saturday, Nov. 15th. The show runs 1 hour and airs at 1pm and again at 10pm.



    Also check out our myspace page, where you can hear an original Mozart's Biatch theme song that I co-wrote with our singer, Joyce Lee.

  • Adrenaline Rush: Performing for Several Hundred

    2008-10-28 10:46AM / 標準BLOG

    This weekend I conducted the world premiere of my concert suite J-ok'el: Legend of La Llorona with the Golden State Pops Orchestra. It was a thrilling, gratifying, and tiring day.



    I was a little bit jittery going on stage, but rather than being nervous, it was mostly from the excitement and energy of being in front of a live audience of several hundred. After accepting the applause and giving a brief intro to my music, I stood in front of the 60 or so musicians on stage and could just feel the electricity in the air. Once I brought my baton down for the first note, it all melted away and I simply had fun bringing my music to life for an attentive audience. The orchestra's performance was superb, they followed my every move, and the only real flaw in the performance was when I accidentally whacked the music stand with my baton. One my friends in the audience mentioned to me afterwards how loud that was....oops.

    Afterwards, I was busy meeting people who had so many wonderful compliments for me, and signing CDs. One guy, Bill Wrobel, who runs a website called filmscorerundowns.net, emailed me the next day to tell me that my music was "one of the surprise highlights of the concert."

    I realized that I don't get to connect with live audiences and meet new fans in person much. Most of my work is done at home in the studio, so I'm hoping for more opportunities in the near future to conduct and present my work to the public.


    Also, check out some of these recent interviews that I did:

    I just had my first rehearsal with the Golden State Pops for our upcoming Hallo
    ween concert. We rehearsed my piece, J-ok'el: Legend of La Llorona, and it was such a thrill to stand on the podium and hear my music gushing from the 60 or so musicians in front of me. The piece is even bigger and more thrilling to hear than it is on the CD, having the full brass section really gooses the big climax at the end of the piece.


    I'm excited about performing live, so if you're in LA, come out to the concert on Oct. 25th at 8pm!
