Check out what Eric is up to!
The Legend of Sleepy Hollow is a one act musical based on the Washington Irving short story. The idea came about when On the Stage Theatre Alliance was set to perform a play adaptation of Sleepy Hollow and it called for music for that adaptation. Working with the director, developing it into a musical made the most sense and Eric was commissioned to create the music in just over a month. After one workshop and very disciplined young actors, we produced the original premiere at The Eagle in Sugar Hill in October of 2021.
The score for Sleepy Hollow was composed and orchestrated by Eric Nabeth. The orchestration is made up of a string quintet (Violin 1, Violin 2, Viola, Cello, Double Bass), a Bass Clarinet, Percussion (Glockenspiel, Chimes, Timpani, Concert Bass Drum), and added Choral timbre. A sample is attached below.
