warm greetings
I’m Cornelis and I compose music inspired by myths and legends.
My aesthetic is melodic, organic, sometimes “epic” in scope, and at other times walking the line of dark ambient, dungeon synth, and drone music. I’ve heard it said that my music pairs well with long evenings of Dungeons & Dragons and other such tabletop endeavours. The symphonic forces are my focus and I create many of the soundscapes you hear with ensembles of acoustic instruments, both from the traditional symphonic orchestra and also from folk traditions found around the world.
If you have a tale to tell and need custom music to enrich the experience, I’d love to work with you. Let’s chat!

private lessons
If you’d like to study and master music theory, learn how to write a song or compose and orchestrate a symphony, or sharpen your music production skills, I’d love to help you achieve your goals! I teach private, 1-on-1 lessons online and in person. Students of all ages and all levels are welcome.
