This is powerful work that does a great job of expressing the feeling of isolation while the bustling world goes on.

So many cool elements….the deep woodwind, the electric piano, and the thought provoking title.

I love this dissonance. It perfectly describes how I feel in a crowd.

An amazing soundscape by two even more amazing musicians.

Great sonic experiment playing with humankind's interdependence on one another and yet the need for occasional isolation is beautifully expressed here for me. Great and seriously meaningful collaboration. Great meeting of kindred souls here. Bravo guys, may there be many more

'Alone In A Crowded Place' is a fusion track inspired by the experience of feeling alone whilst surrounded and in the midst of a large group of people. Composition is shared with Georg Boehme, whilst Georg's wind arrangements are simply mind blowing as is his soloing on this track. So then once again I have had the exceptionally good fortune of sharing another musical journey with this extraordinary player, arranger and composer.
Thank you for listening and please leave your thoughts in the comments should you have the time and/or inclination to do so.
Alan.

Alone In A Crowded Place

Alone In A Crowded Place ( Hamilton and Boehme)

Now retired from a life 'on the road' as a freelance keyboard player, I compose and record in my home studio, situated in the Carrick Hills in Southern Scotland. My music is mainly instrumental in nature and is a reflection of my life experience, sometimes real and sometimes imagined.
My influences are many and I have quite probably been shaped by listening to the very many "giants" of music, both players and composers. From classical to contemporary jazz and everything in between. My main instrument is the keyboard, whether that be piano, organ or synth. But I also play banjo, flute and percussion. I have a special relationship'with bass, whether upright or electric and use virtual and synth basses from numerous sources, but mainly Trilian by Spectrasonics.
