The Lagniappe Recorder
Lagniappe is a small gift given to a customer by a merchant at the time of a purchase (such as a 13th doughnut when buying a dozen), or more broadly, "something given or obtained gratuitously or by way of good measure."
Or as I say "a little something special".

Now retired from a life 'on the road' as a freelance keyboard player, I compose and record in my home studio, situated in the Carrick Hills in Southern Scotland. My music is mainly instrumental in nature and is a reflection of my life experience, sometimes real and sometimes imagined.
My influences are many and I have quite probably been shaped by listening to the very many "giants" of music, both players and composers. From classical to contemporary jazz and everything in between. My main instrument is the keyboard, whether that be piano, organ or synth. But I also play banjo, flute and percussion. I have a special relationship'with bass, whether upright or electric and use virtual and synth basses from numerous sources, but mainly Trilian by Spectrasonics.

I like to record various tunes  I play  on my accordion from time to time,  some new tunes I make up, and tunes I learn from those I follow on soundcloud.   Sometimes you will find  collab projects here too.

I try to put a link where to find the notes or the other players in the track descriptions.

Some notes about ‘Göran Agdur’ : (by Ingvar Karkoff : Composer)
Göran began his career “hammering”, curiously touching the “taffel” his father and mother had bought to the apartment in Sundsvall, a town situated up north on the east coast of Sweden where his father “Gunnar” worked with excavators after moving from Karlstad where Göran was born,his father here inventing the famous “Kamewa” propeller that runs under Norwegian ship “Hurtigrutten” , Goran’s mother “Ingrid” writing poems and children stories when not taking care of the household. Elderly brother “Björn” introduced Göran into the pop and rock songs from late 50:ies early 60:ies being played on Radio Luxemburg all night long, his other brother “Ulf”, a magician, playing classical pieces on the piano, especially Chopin’s “The Funeral March” when emotions of sadness ruled…
The piano came to be an instrument for Goran Agdur to express his emotions…
Göran self taught as he was in his childhood started taking lessons in “Counterpoint” for Swedish composer “Hans Eklund” at the Music Academy in Stockholm in the late 70:ies and in “Orchestration” for great teacher “Gunnar Johansson”.
Göran Agdur’s cooperation with violinist Semmy Stahlhammer, first concert master at the Stockholm Royal Opera, has resulted in two albums : “Dawn Earth” & “Hands Folded” (on ‘Nosag’ & ‘Naxos’) Göran Agdur has released 7 other albums : Piano Music, Tystnadens Näste, The Café of Despair, The Delivery, Chicaton, Tumba Lives Forever & Nest of Silence. Mats Möller, flute, and Johannes Möller, guitar, recorded the pieces Miniatures on their CD Duo 2XM (SFZ records). In addition to this, Agdur’s music has been used in films, including My name is Mitra by Reza Bagher The Pension by Jan Gustafsson and A newly made bed by Sebastian Nyman Agdur and Andreas Tillnert, which won the Silver medal at the Unica filmfestival in South Korea 2006. Agdur’s music was also used in a production of ‘Il Misterio Buffo’ by Dario Fo, staged by Vera Rostin in Bergen, Norway. With Dutch choreographer, Ingrid Dalmeyer, Agdur made “Dutch Delight” and “Lustans café” which together with “Zarouki group” were performed at the theatre houses “Oscars” and “Intiman” in Stockholm. On these performances Agdur played his piano live on stage with the dancers circling around him. In “Dutch Delight” Ingrid took Göran from the piano for a while on a dance with her, a dance that ended up with them singing Agdur’s song “Chicaton, specially composed for the occasion and now on this album. This song becoming very popular, Agdur recorded with his group “Joy” that he played with at that time. (distr. “Marianne Rec.”) Another important collaboration was with the Swedish painter Anders Fogelin. Together Agdur and Fogelin created two exhibitions of art and music : Concierto and Musica which were performed in Stockholm, Barcelona and Kyoto. The ‘Russian Chamber Orchestra’ under the leadership of conductor Sergei Proskourin, has 2010 & 2011 performed a “Suite” , compositions “throughout the years”, newly arranged specifically for this orchestra. This “Suite”, together with 8 new pieces, specially designed for the orchestra, will be recorded and performed in “Saratov” in Russia. “Nest of Silence” : “Möller (flute) plays Agdur (piano)” was published on “CD” 2016 (“Nosag” & “Naxos”)
Göran Agdur’s production contains over 300 songs and 150 compositions for piano/ensemble of which some now can be listened to on “Spotify”,”Tidal” & “YouTube”
