Piano Journeys

Playing with tired hands and a tired mind, I tried to make a piece that expresses my recent struggles in a way that allows me to let them go. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A dramatic piece with strong intention that changes from minor to major. (The name is a pun on the words "Minor Major") Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A lanky, random jazz piece with no pedal (very rare for me!) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

All I'll say about this one is that I think it tells a story, which I invite you to take part in. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A frenetic, offbeat piece that mixes elements of Jazz with other genres. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A brooding, atmospheric piece. I think it's been over a year since I've recorded something in this style (if ever?) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Honestly I'm not sure how to describe this one, but I hope you like it. (: Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A nostalgic melody inspired by 80s pop songs. (Yes, the name is a play on words) Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

An experimental piece emphasizing a dark low-register and mostly black keys, with irregular rhythms. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

An experimental piece that tries to mix many styles and feelings, with frequent changes and very little in the way of a central theme. After giving the title, I realized the clash with the genre of music called "New Age" that is a part of many of my songs. But the intention here was not the genre, but the feeling of a new age, in other words some big change. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy...

At the end of a long day, my hands tired from work, I sat in in my piano room with no light but the remainder of the dim sky through the windows. After a few minutes of playing, I felt somehow rejuvenated. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A light, upbeat jazzy piece I made on a Sunday Monday when snow blanketed the ground outside. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A wistful piece, something like staring into the sunset on a beach. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Contrasting greatly with my last two pieces, this is a very short piece with a simple, peaceful melody and a pretty straightforward structure. I hope you like it! Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

Another crazy freeform mix of genres and styles. I think this one of my more creative attempts, with a pretty wide variety of stuff I haven't done in recent songs. But what do you think? Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.

A longish freeform work that was my first recorded work of the year. Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
