Seasons: Spring

Posted on Leave a commentPosted in Music, piano, rock/jazz/blues fusion

I’ve been continuing to compose instrumental piano pieces titled after the four seasons. This time up it’s Spring (won’t Summer be just itching to get started?).

Again, these pieces are improvised, or in classical terms, “through composed”. I discovered a new tag to describe them: Alt Classical, from reading about another composer and how her music is categorized.

So, Alt Classical it is. Hope you enjoy it!

Themes

Posted on Leave a commentPosted in Music, piano

I’ve been working on new music and here it is. These pieces are a combination of piano and electronic sounds, and I’ve called them Themes. The titles refer to when they were composed/improvised. (My method of composition is basically straight improvisation, with very few tweaks afterwords.) I think, after listening to them, that they do reflect the mood of our times: uncertainty and hope. We need to stay as positive as possible. That is my own feeling!

Enjoy!

A Year of Piano Improv–1

Posted on Leave a commentPosted in Music, piano, Uncategorized

This is the first new batch of improvised piano pieces I created this past year. They are quite varied, but also as I listen to them there are themes that occur and re-occur. Some are at home with tradition, and some break with tradition. As always, for me, it is important to keep exploring and trying to ways to express myself musically.

Enjoy!
