''Embers is an introspective piano piece about the sparks that ignite a new beginning. The piece explores the interplay of uncertainty and persistence, using dynamic contrasts and imaginative harmonies to create a melancholic yet uplifting soundscape. The vibe is reflective and meditative, with a surface that undulates like waves.'' - @juliagjertsen

Oscillation

Vi presento MC la mia ultima composizione. Sto cercando di lavorare sul respiro dell'orchestra attraverso la massimizzazione della dinamica di ogni accordo. Dentro questi minuti si trovano poche melodie. Al contrario ci sono vari cambi di atmosfera proprio perché lo studio riguarda il miglioramento nella tecnica di produzione per questo genere di musica.

Exclusive audio taken from the upcoming album 'View from Above'...

Christopher Colaço and Philipp Schaeper have known each other since moving from their Southern German hometowns to Berlin. Together they studied Jazz piano/drums at the Berlin University of Arts and immediately dived into the vibrant Jazz scene.

Playing and working together shaped their musical common sense. In 2013 Christopher and Philipp had the opportunity to score their first movie (Oh Boy! – A Coffee in Berlin) and formed an old school sounding Jazz band with friends. After winning the German Academy Award for best original score, they continued to develop their collaborative project as a duo writing and scoring music.

At the same time they are working on their own music and started collaborating with classical musicians from the Mahler Chamber Orchestra in 2018, which lead to their first debut album. The record 'View From Above' consists of 7 tracks, creating atmospheric soundscapes that mingle between film-music, classical minimalism, ambient and electronic music.

'View From Above' provides a portrait of Christopher and Philipp's journey over the past few years and was recorded in Berlin at Bonello Studios. The renown mixing artist Francesco Donadello gave the record its final touch and it will be released on May 10th worldwide.

Let It Snow

I made a little video about how I made this piece and it's story here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=0RfIRPWCpCQ&t=72s 
I begun to write this track for last year's Pianoday amongst other album tracks. I was inspired by prepared piano composers and used recordings of the strings of the piano being strummed with the keys taped down to allow them to resonate. I didn't complete it till later on in the year and felt it belonged on the album alongside other tracks that we're being written sequentially at the same time ( https://orcd.co/alone-not-alone-album ) so I'm thrilled to now see it come home and contribute to Piano Day 2020!

In the track delicate beginnings give way to an overwhelming sense of wistfulness, surrounded by the sirens of compassion.  A reflection on the challenges of departure and the need for independence and, in the end, solitude and the possibilities therein. The piano strings we're close mic'd and gently strummed for the intro and background soundscape. Later on they we're hit with the handle of a glockenspiel beater to make the stronger sound for the middle section. The piano melody is joined by bow'd xylophone and string glissando's and melodies to create an atmospheric track that speaks of the tensions of solitude and togetherness, inspired by a visit to Crozon in France and our country's own challenges of leaving the EU and the tensions therein.
