Ouverture in F-Sharp Minor

There are so many great pieces of music in this place and and all over, that it almost feels  unnecessary to put any more out there.
But its not a competition and if it makes us feel happy by making beats and listen to it, then lets continue the ride🤝😎

As of 1.9.2023 this is now the official project page of Encounter 743.

John C. Buttigieg is a British-Maltese neoclassical artist, broadcast composer, and contemporary solo pianist based in London. Known for his cinematic approach, John’s sound is meditative, experimentally abstract, and leans toward minimalism.

John regularly writes music for the production and broadcasting music industry. His contemporary piano compositions and albums have been featured on national television and radio, including on the BBC and ITV. 

Though technically neoclassical, John’s improvisational and experiential styles eclipse genre boundaries. His creative instincts are fuelled by self-expression and the search for connection, exploring freedom, harmony, and romance in his compositions. Probing for meaning amidst life’s chaos, John’s work mirrors filmic narrative, intense and melancholy, with subtle glimpses of joy and optimism.

John holds a number of degrees, including a Bachelor of Arts in Philosophy and Psychology (University of Malta), a Master of Science in Psychology (University of Nottingham) and a Master’s in Music Therapy (Anglia Ruskin University, Cambridge). During his time in Malta, he worked under piano tutor Julian Dyson, studying Chopin, Rachmaninoff, and creating his own compositions (specifically, his solo piano suite ‘Uncharted’). He partook in several piano masterclasses (hosted by the Johann Strauss School of Music, Malta) with visiting piano professors from various countries. They were
all receptive to John’s playing and his interpretation of Chopin’s Ballade No. 2.

Apart from the odd piano lesson as a child, John didn’t have a classical foundation, nor did he complete any grades or exams. He started his musical journey alone, initially tackling Chopin’s work independently. John first discovered Chopin as a teenager whilst looking through his father’s cassettes. He listened to ‘My Favourite Chopin’, a curated playlist, and fell in love with music after hearing ‘Ballades’, ‘Etudes', ‘Impromptus' and ‘Barcarolle’. Seized with a need to play these pieces, he began devoting more time to piano. After finishing his A-Level in Music, John found that music was the only means by which he could express himself fully - and thus he pursued a more ‘non-traditional’ route to developing his musicianship and artistic career.

Deeply influenced by classical pioneers including Rachmaninoff, Chopin, Debussy, and Satie, John’s music seeks to express the inexpressible, and to find meaning and peace in the jumble of the everyday.

I make music in almost all styles including one of my own. I grew up next to the Mojave Desert in orange-growing country and moved to Hollywood twice and then moved to the ocean and organic farming in Santa Cruz. I love Bach...

"Wenn ich meinen Tee trinke,
trinke ich einfach nur meinen Tee." 
(Thich Nhat Hanh)
Und wenn ich Musik mache - 
dann gibt es nur die Musik.

Glass and concrete are so intertwined with the neural network of their inhabitants that a kind of symbiosis is obtained, reaching parasitism of one above the other. A small person has a choice: to be free or to become a link in this system, having realized this choice, the choice as such ceases to exist.

Dolbania was founded in January 2008 by two friends and a cat - lovers of good heavy music. Then a gloomy Gothic composition was recorded on the poems of I.V. Goethe on an acoustic guitar and synthesizer.
In the first year of her existence, she was in a creative search, with an admixture of depression. We searched for inspiration at abandoned industrial facilities and in listening to a huge amount of music. We fucked for a long time and a year later we finally decided on the style that you can currently hear in our songs.
