Welcome to Allen Yu's Music Compositions!
This web site is work-in-progress. It represents my long-time dream of publishing and sharing my compositions. My dream has finally come true in March of 2005, when I finally bit the bullet and bought a pair of brand new MXL microphones! Later in March 2007, I went further and bought a Yamaha P140 digital piano - which makes it even easier to record...
Composing has been a passion since high school (around 1988). It has always been a very important part of my life, despite my choice to choose a career in other fields. One of the most "tragic" events of my "music career" took place in 1996, when I lost over 80 written scores after I accidentally formatted my hard drive while installing minix for class - without a backup. I made peace and vowed to let my music come and go - the same way life comes and goes ... That is until some ten years later in 2005 when I had a change of heart. I began to think it a waste to let all the music go...
So here I am - trying to keep my music again... While most of my compositions from 1988 - 2005 will remain lost, I plan to continue to record old pieces as I remember them ... and, more importantly, to compose and record new ones! The only album that is complete is my Law School Years Album. I am also starting my newest album, my Second Career Years Album (unfortunately due to another accident, I lost over 15 pieces there).
Thanks for visiting. :-)
