PiNdrop Music Design was created as a musical creative outlet for Phillip Ginn and Noah Clark.
Specializing in original music, we want to make sure that we offer pieces of music for every ability level, whether it’s for beginners or professionals. When we compose or arrange, we keep in mind what level ensemble we envision performing the piece… and then we push the envelope just a bit. We believe that a performer’s improvement comes from challenges. This way, the ensemble gets a piece to play that is generally at their ability level, but will be challenged to play new things as well.
