Composition Lessons

I offer both in-person and virtual composition lessons for percussion-focused composition and film-scoring!

During the 2020 pandemic, I found a passion for film scoring. My brother, Joel Paoletti, is a film director and I have had the opportunity to collaborate on his films and other projects throughout the years. 

Parallel to that was a curiosity into percussion-focused composition. In 2023, I started my first official commission Perch for Rochester Adams' High School percussion ensemble. Since then, I have composed many solos and ensemble pieces including Meditations From Space for Solo Vibraphone and track as well my latest commission It Dreams for Multi-percussion and track. I have had the chance to study composition with Austin Keck, Brant Blackard and Andy Akiho.
