Improvisations on piano

Improvisation No. 1

Impro No 2- on Nkosi Sikelel' iAfrika - the national anthem of South Africa

Improvisation No 4 - “Harmonic discords”


Rivers have always captured the imagination of humans. Many hymns have been dedicated to them. Their beauty lies in the landscapes they traverse. 
Shenandoah is an American folk song. It was first a riverman's and then sailor's song. And this is just a beautiful melody – FOLLOWED BY MY OWN IMPROVISATION ON IT.

Here are the lyrics from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Oh_Shenandoah 

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to see you,
    And hear your rolling rivers
    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away, you rolling river.
    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away, we're bound away
    Cross the wide Missouri.

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I love your daughter,
    Away, you rolling river.
    For her I'd cross
    Your roaming waters,
    Way, we're bound away
    Across the wide Missouri.

    'Tis seven years
    since last I've seen you,
    Away, you rolling river.
    'Tis seven years
    since last I've seen you,
    Away, we're bound away
    Cross the wide Missouri.

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away you rolling river.
    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Away, we're bound away
    Cross the wide Missouri.

    Oh Shenandoah,
    I long to hear you,
    Far away, you rolling river.
    Oh Shenandoah,
    Just to be near you,
    Far away, far away.
    Across the wide Missouri.
