"Dr. Halvorson's arrangements attest to his ingenuity. His facility at voice-leading, and musically ecumenical compass speak to the legitimacy of 'no-brow' music, with no pretense about high or low-brow conventions.His real familiarity of vernacular runs the gamut, from the sprechtstimme of 'Pierrot Lunaire' to that of 'Like A Rolling Stone'; his interest in orchestration, runs from Gregorian to Gershwin and beyond." - Van Dyke Parks

No. 1

Arranging


Let's say you have a fantastic song and the only way to make it better is by adding a string quartet, a harp and a bass clarinet, but you have no idea how to write and notate for those instruments. I can give your song the extra sophistication it deserves by providing a professional arrangement with short turnaround. With a DMA in music composition and nearly two decades of working with Sibelius notation software, you and your performers will get exactly what you want and promptly!
No. 2

Composition


With an unending portfolio of music ranging from theatre to film to indie-rock to metal to pop to country, whether you're a filmmaker, a theater director, producer or musician, I can provide you with unique and compelling compositions to fit your creative concepts.
No. 3

Production


Don't have your own studio or know any performers who can play the instruments you're hearing? No problem. With a home studio and a vast rolodex of performer contacts for any instrument, I can find, hire and record all the parts I've arranged or composed. I can then edit and prepare stems for the studio you are working with. All arranging and composing work can be ready in a neat little package to deliver to your recording engineer!
