Like you, the music I play has a final quality that is almost painful with emotion. This is very good and I enjoyed

Love this one! Esay to relate to it, since I'm a fan of Glass and Tiersen and this track reminds me of that. But still very unique. Such a touching, emotional meldoy. This goes deep!!! :)

Be Heaven, In The Trees

I had the pleasure of working with Anastasiya Ihnatovich. Her piano pieces are an example of simplicity and expressiveness. And that in a musically very original way.

The Fall (Part I) - Cosmogonic Myth

With great sadness I announce the passing of my good friend, bandmate, and Soundcloud artist, mandolinist Patrick Howell.  Some of you knew of his valiant battle with cancer and supported him in prayer and the warmest of well wishes.  He succumbed to the disease July 17, 2023 surrounded by a loving family who helped usher him into the presence of the Lord Jesus.  Besides being a beloved friend and brother in Christ, he was also a muse for me, challenging me to take his little "ditties" and make them into songs.  I will be featuring those songs in the coming weeks in my "Spotlight", but for now I pay tribute to his life and talent with how he beautifully decorated this special song two years ago with his playing.  Rest in the sweetest peace my friend until the Lord awakens you.

Twisting In Snow

Long Story Short

Wandering Mind, Drifting Weather is a cross-border collaboration between Norwegian composer and pianist Julia Gjertsen and Swedish trombonist and sound artist Gustav Davidsson. Both artists have a classically trained background, and are known for their improvised sound and Ambient compositions. Between them they’ve released on labels such as Moderna Records, Constellation Tatsu, Bigo & Twigetti and Blue Spiral Records. While Julia is known for her emotive piano-led pieces and evolving electronic textures, Gustav brings his unique approach to the trombone, treating it as both a melodic and atmospheric instrument. They reside in separate but neighbouring countries with Julia in Oslo, Norway and Gustav in the village of Ljungskile near Gothenburg in Sweden.

This album was created as a slow and intuitive exchange of sketches, sent back and forth between these two artists over the course of several months. The result is an immersive suite of compositions which place the piano and trombone front of stage, enhanced by subtle restrained pads, Wurlitzer tones and gentle electronics. Each piece represents a different time of day and evokes a mood akin to weather in motion such as shifting light, drifting clouds or a sudden breeze. The title Wandering Mind, Drifting Weather reflects the intuitive progression of these works, where ideas and improvisations gradually shaped a harmonious collection. Thematically, it paints nature as both a setting and a metaphor; the way a setting can be transformed by meteorological elements, and how thoughts, just like weather, pass with their own emotional charge.

Rather than follow a rigid structure, the music here exists in a space between composition and spontaneity, often capturing a moment rather than refining it. Julia’s minimal and expressive piano sketches form the structural foundation, while Gustav explores the trombone’s many voices not just as a lead instrument, but as a background hum, gentle harmony, or a shadowy atmosphere

Avenia is the debut collaborative EP between the mysterious spiritual collective 'Isabel del Bosco' and ambient electronic music producer Cristián García Laborde AKA 'Koiwa'. 
On this sparse, warm and contemplative release, both parts bring the best from each of their worlds to create a succession of soft & melancholic melodies, ambient dreamscapes and drone-ish beat-driven hypnotic tracks. A lot of variety packed in four compositions that allow for multiple replays.

Still reflecting this pretty sad day into another free improvisation. This is like writing down my very emotions and it is my best cure. Hope you like this one, too.

Composer enquiries: info@andrewleefarquhar.com

Andrew Lee Farquhar is a multi-instrumentalist and producer from the UK. His compositions often feature strings and piano, even sometimes with electronics and ambient textures.

Neoclassical Contemporary Crossover Composer  / Piano Artist:

Farquhar's solo piano music without words, evokes a minimalist emotional-world, yet in other ways neutral, melancholic, and desirable. A soundscape full of blurry images of the past; of long forgotten memories and characters from a yesteryear; of times gone by and ever-looping addictive piano phrasing, of beautiful melodies from far-away-destinations, far-away-waters, far-away-skies, far-away-landscapes. 

Born in Northern England, he spent years studying piano, developing a minimalist, modern classical repertoire. He is a highly creative piano artist with a distinct flair in the neoclassical minimalist genre stratosphere.
