Description:

It has been a strange difficult winter, but out of this comes some beautiful contemplative keyboard music, recorded in 2006 in my home studio on a Kawai grand piano. The music evolves from the first notes I play on the piano. Like a conversation with the piano, I listen and something new is suggested. Sometimes the piece is built on specific chord changes like a jazz musician improvising. But most of time I spontaneously compose the piece based on motifs I invent and chord sequences I create. Each time I attempt to do something a little different from the last time. Like speaking with a friend, nothing is pre-planned but evolves through careful listening.
