There are always those nights when our thoughts or experiences don't let us sleep. This composition was created from an improvisation of a sleepless night and reflects the peace, the magic but also the loneliness of the night and its influence on humans.

Sleepless

This track is part of the Open Path: https://soundcloud.com/ariad-music/sets/the-open-path-wip  
Around the piano composition, I recorded clarinet, percussions and sounds to bring some extra-life and also asked my friend @plex-auchta to play drums. He did an excellent job! I just found the file just recently on my old backup. All my sounds were recorded with my old Zoom H2 recorder, so it's quite noisy. Also, I did an automatic mastering because I'm incredibly too lazy to do so correctly. I should record in more decent way. We can say that was a mockup. Hope you can enjoy it. You can watch me playing this composition in the streets here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zeuBQ2pn5nI

So I did actually take some professional music composition classes at the Swift Creek Academy for the Performing Arts in Chesterfield, VA.  But since 2009, my primary music theory teacher is my girl, who introduced me to Holst.

Morning Frost

Inspired by themes of resilience and perseverance, the piece evokes a quiet strength, echoing the spirit of Maya Angelou’s iconic poem And Still I Rise. With its gentle yet determined phrasing, Still Rising offers a deeply emotive listening experience, balancing delicate melodies with a sense of unwavering resolve.

Hello everybody. I  am Andrej Zatkalík from Bratislava, Slovakia.

My first musical steps  began in childhood  at the age of 8, when I started playing the piano. I learnt at the local musical school for the next seven years. From that time on, my greatest passion has been piano improvising.  It’s like an open-ended adventure to put your fingers on the piano keys and let your soul speak with the universal language of music!

I often play around with simple musical motifs, adding changes and variations to them. That way I create my improvisations.

Sometimes I record myself playing, and by listening back I can find some interesting melodies or chord progressions, which I don’t remember playing. My music is mostly unplanned, and the majority of my piano pieces I have created during one evening, which is why I often use the word “evening“ or “night“ in title name.

Beside piano improvisations I have also recorded  some piano covers and some orchestral compositions. My main musical influences include classical music, especially the music of J.S. Bach, but I also like modern music.

Since two years ago I have been uploading  my improvisations and other pieces to Soundcloud and joined The Piano Cloud community. Two of my tracks have been reviewed on this site:

Ocean Improvisation
Night Improvisation 3
In future I would like – beside my main focus, which is the piano – to try some more orchestral music compositions.
