I Am With You was composed in the fall of 2025 as a project to practice and hone orchestral writing skills. This piece features fast-paced rhymes, orchestral textures, counter melodies, tone shifts, and much more. The title “I Am With You” was given to the work as a reference to Jarrett’s Catholic faith to match the piece’s overall hopeful and heroic tone. One of the standout features of the orchestration is the piano; there are long, flowing runs, interesting, colorful melodies, and complementary rhythms to the rest of the orchestra. Moreover, the French Horn parts are also a standout feature, as the parts are high ambient, contrasting, and reinforce the overall presentation of the piece.
