نغمة شريدة من لحن قديم بوسعها أن تفجِّر في النفس عاصفة من الانفعالات المتناقضة والذكريات والمشاعر الكئيبة الخائبة، تماماً كما لو أن القلب يستقبل دفعةً واحدة ألف وردة وألف خنجر.


December is a special time of year for most of the world. As children we look forward to it with eager anticipation of all of the shiny new toys and presets we will get this season.  As adults our priorities hopefully shift some and we worry more about the gift of giving than the act of receiving.  We imagine making friends and loved-ones, new ones as well as old, happy in some small way. We envision participating with them in their life for a moment or two and sharing some form of intimacy.  We celebrate the opportunity to give love with the intention of building lasting relationships, and if we are wise enough, we let go of expectations of immediate reciprocation and realize the act of giving is itself its own reward...

"Autumn Rains" is the second installment in a trio of neoclassical solo piano albums composed, performed, and produced by Andrew Souter. These projects have been two decades in the making and represent a return to traditional music composition, engaging song-writing, and the pure passion of emotional story-telling. This trio represents Andrew's most personal and intimate music. It is quite literally a love project. We hope it may help you on your journey, as it has us...

"Autumn Rains" is music inspired by the spirit of Agape. It is an album dedicated to the concept of spiritual love and universal compassion clothed in the metaphor of transcendental natural beauty. It is an album that simultaneously expresses deep love for both the creator as well as the creation. It is said God gave us music so that we could pray without words. It could be added that nature was provided as an example of exactly how to do this effectively. In this spirit, Autumn Rains is a prayer of gratitude for the opportunity to learn from the natural beauty of this world, and an expression of a sense of respect for the inescapable universal equality that nature imposes. It humbly attempts to capture deep feelings of awe, granduer, idealism, and a belief in the innate goodness of the world even when we all face exceptionally hard lessons.

Few things offer greater clarity in life than change. It provides the wisdom necessary to look behind you and understand things better. Embrace change and grow.

This duet for piano and cello is an improvisation on a theme of change. Piano is live recorded.

Last Night With Chopin (op72 no1)

Where have all the major chords gone?  Actually, there is one in this piece!  Regular listeners will know that I like to philosophise when I’m creating these tracks.  I suppose the lesson today is to focus on what you want and don’t be put off by all the superfluous noise.  Your ‘joy’ could be hiding from you in plain sight.  What do you think?
