Hello! My name is Maiko Chiba, and I am glad that you have found your way to my site. Navigational links are on the left side of all of my site's pages, so that you can easily get around. Other links include companies, people, or other websites that I have an interest (be it personal or professional) in, so you can check those out, also. If you have any questions or comments about the site, what I do, etc. then please use the "Contact Me" link below and I will reply as soon as possible. Thanks for stopping by!
About Me
I am an indepedant (freelance) composer, who has worked with both television and orchestral media. I compose both academic works (for concerts) and film music. I compose for orchestras, chamber groups and solo instruments. I also use synthesizers to make music (especially) for films. I am good at melodies with visual images. Please listen to my pieces in the sample section.
What I Do
Currently, I (of course) compose original works for all types of purposes- concerts, film music, etc. I offer one-on-one teaching for piano, and music theory for those living in the Washington, D.C. metro area. I can arrange classically-based music per your specifications. To arrange for a quotation to compose an original work, please send me an email by clicking HERE - be sure to include as much information about the project that you wish me to undertake. I will contact you shortly thereafter to get more detail and to discuss it with you. For one-on-one piano teaching, this is done at my location. The charges vary depending upon the age of the student and the content of the lessons. I can teach from pre-school up to advanced students, so don't be shy- please send me an email by clicking HERE!
