The Discarded Instrument
August 31, 2024
Music of the Spheres for Piano
The Discarded Instrument is a piano collection of the album Music of the Spheres by Martin O’Donnell, Michael Salvatori, and Sir Paul McCartney.
The collection was carefully reduced to a solo piano using the scores from the original Abbey Road recording sessions and recorded using the Synthogy “Ivory Grand Pianos” library, the very same that lead composer Martin O’Donnell used to draft the original album. It doesn’t get more authentic than that!
RAIN
October 19, 2023
Muted Trumpet Cover
Rain (Muted Trumpet Cover) is an arrangement of the main theme from the video game Halo 3: ODST. It was originally suggested by the game's co-director Joe Staten to use a muted trumpet for the game’s noire setting. The game’s composer, Martin O’Donnell, preferred a saxophone. This is an interpretation of what it could’ve sounded like if O’Donnell had used a muted trumpet.
The Inside Waltz

Orchestral Cover
The Inside Waltz (Orchestral Version) is a cover of the instrumental theme from the acclaimed comedy special Bo Burnham: Inside.
