Behind the catalog — brass-first, arranging-first.
Tallyhorn is the working catalog of a Houston trombonist, composer, and arranger who treats every cue on the desk as a placement waiting to be matched — and a brass line that needs to sit exactly where the picture holds its breath.

The composer
One trombone, one publishing desk, one catalog.
Tallyhorn is curated by a working trombonist, composer, and arranger who keeps a publishing desk in Houston and a brass-first instinct in every cue. The catalog leans on a brass-and-arranging sensibility that came out of years on the road — horn sections cut to fit the picture, not the other way around.
Publications and credit lines come from a working composer-arranger whose CV reads across indie film, ad campaigns, and game reveals. Every cue in the catalog was scored, recorded, and arranged here; the PRO paperwork, the master clearances, and the publisher relationships are handled the same way they've been handled for the last decade — by one person and a Rolodex that doesn't quit.
The point of Tallyhorn is not to scale the catalog — it's to keep a brass-first sensibility intact while the pitch desk, detection, and reconciliation move faster than a single person can alone. The face behind the catalog is the same face on the roster.
