Classical Improvisation: Nocturne Fantasy in C minor.  Improvised on December 27th, 2013 by Brad Stark.  A flowing and darkly hued piano improvisation in the key of C minor.

Improvisation recorded and improvised on a K. Kawai grand piano.

My piano improvisations range in style from classical to early 20th century, to more contemporary harmonic styles.

In developing my improvisations I usually begin by creating a short intro section of music which captures my interest and I wish to develop further. This usually becomes the basis for the improvisation but I use different techniques to develop my improvisations.

Some of my classical piano influences include Chopin, Ravel, Scriabin, Rachmaninov, Bach, and others.
