Recent graduate composition student (who has also been helping out the music department as a lecturer Fall and Winter quaraters) Joseph Trapanese, has shared a few of his recent (and impressive) composing and arranging credits.

He orchestrated the third season of Showtime’s hit series DEXTER, and appeared as the trombonist in the wedding band in the season finale. Picture is attached below. He orchestrated Led Zeppelin’s song KASHMIR for a Seattle Seahawks NFL Halftime show, performed by Alice in Chains and the Northwest Symphony Orchestra. Picture also below. Then, he orchestrated and co-produced the music for Victoria’s Secret 2008 Holiday Ads, as well as recently scoring his first feature film. COUNTDOWN: JERUSALEM will be available on DVD Feb. 24. Check it out at: http://www.imdb.com/title/tt1353014/. Last year he was an orchestrator the films TRAITOR, WHAT HAPPENS IN VEGAS, THE MEMORY KEEPERS DAUGHTER, and BEETHOVEN’S BIG BREAK. Joe has been pretty busy!
