In the height of the moment is an instrumental album by Jeanette C. spanning several genres, but tending towards soundtrack and orchestral music. Its tracks span more than a decade of recording, offering a good context for several unreleased pieces.
- [Download "Ibunt ad astra" OGG] [Download "Ibunt ad astra" MP3] Written and recorded well before 2010, it was intended as a title theme for a "science fiction in space" series.
- [Download "With an aching heart" OGG] [Download "With an aching heart" MP3] The title says it all, a piano piece expressing an emotion.
- [Download "Interstellar gulf" OGG] [Download "Interstellar gulf" MP3] More incidental music for the space faring.
- [Download "Torn" OGG] [Download "Torn" MP3] Birthed as an introduction to a longer tune, this semi-orchestral piece ended up by itself.
- [Download "The apprentice - hard studies" OGG] [Download "The apprentice - hard studies" MP3] From SciFi top fantasy, namely wizards in a computer game, this is another idea that didn't make it into the real world.
- [Download "Observation P" OGG] [Download "Observation P" MP3] This very short scenic impression was jeanette's entry into a competition: music to be composed to a photo.
- [Download "Operation P" OGG] [Download "Operation P" MP3] From the above mentioned competition and the minimal impression, this hypothetical main title was spawned.
- [Download "O Tannenbaum" OGG] [Download "O Tannenbaum" MP3] The well-known German carol has potential lure even for those not overly enthused by xmas. Set it into a minor key and arrange it for organ and orchestra and you have a completely different song.
- [Download "See the conquering hero" OGG] [Download "See the conquering hero" MP3] Handel's melody is also known as an xmas hymn. This orchestration was recorded around 2005 and lost back down the sofa.
- [Download "Quaint and picturesque" OGG] [Download "Quaint and picturesque" MP3] A piano portrait of a perfect Yorkshire morning, sun slanting in through the french windows and the cat asleep on the piano stool. How much more quaint and picturesque can it be?
- [Download "Wind of sorrow" OGG] [Download "Wind of sorrow" MP3] A sombre piano improvisation picking up on a depressive mood.
- [Download "Cloud burst" OGG] [Download "Cloud burst" MP3] No relation to Eric Whitacre's gorgeous music. But rather a halfway abstract accompaniment to sunlight bursting through passing clouds.
- [Download "Lip of reality" OGG] [Download "Lip of reality" MP3] Inspired by Henry Rider Haggard's novel "She". There is a description of a cave with a depthless abyss.
- [Download "Dark dreams" OGG] [Download "Dark dreams" MP3] Incidental music to a mystery: dark, obscure, but definitely within the mundane everyday world.
