Still With Me

The Last Tsarina

Anna Heller plays the original composition by Vivian Roost Étoiles Filantes ("Shooting Stars" in English) 
Vivian about his music: "It is a part of my EP « The Memory of Time ». It talks about the moment that is happening in real-time and will disappear at the moment you see it. The shooting Stars, are a gift for the eyes, something precious that you have to be ready to admire such as the life. 

About the composition part, It is something very unpredictable, I tried to keep the emotions that I felt at the moment and just sat  front of my piano Pleyel and let my inspiration flow. "

EDUARDO DIAZ Recuerdos (2021)

AYRE “... a song-like vocal or instrumental composition."
And with that, The Oxford Dictionary of Music, has easily summed up the
wide selection of music found on David Lanz and Kristin Amarie's latest
masterwork, AYRES.
Herein you will find, intimate vocal and solo piano performances along side
sweeping orchestral arrangements in support of vocals, choir and several
instrumentals centered around the piano and cello.
Award-winnning soprano, Kristin Amarie, and Grammy Nominated pianist,
David Lanz, are beautifully supported by Emmy winning arranger and
composer, Kurt Bestor, conducting The Utah Film Orchestra.
Danish classical guitarist, Lars Hannibal and American Game Of Thrones
cellist, Cameron Stone, are among those who offer their masterful musical
gifts in enhancement of these works.
Bach's classic Air on the G string, is reborn within an engaging Amarie vocal
in this contemporary orchestral rendition. AIR features very special quest,
original Procol Harum organist and composer of A WHITER SHADE OF
PALE, Matthew Fisher.
PADRE NOSTRO (The Lord's Prayer), and GLORIA IN EXCELSIS DEO, two
ancient prayers are performed here in Italian. Of note, the UK's premiere
singing group, Apollo Five, join Kristin Amarie and American tenor, Dallyn Vail
Bayles, and together they elevate GLORIA IN EXCELSIS DEO, in heavenly
fashion. A third prayer from AYRES, the classic, AVE MARIE, is performed in
it’s classic Latin text, supported by Libera's English boy star treble, Luca
Brugnoli. All three hymns retain their original texts, but have been
recomposed by Lanz and Amarie and cast in new musical settings.
AYRES also features newly composed vocal and instrumental music, written
and arranged for piano, cello, classical guitar and orchestra. All are given a
modern Classical Crossover treatment. In particular, DEMAIN DES L'AUBES
(Tomorrow at Dawn). A hauntingly beautiful piece, composed around Victor
Hugo's poem about the tragic death of his daughter, Léopoldine. Sung in
French by Kristin and supported with piano and chamber orchestra.
Over the last decade, Kristin Amarie and David Lanz, have forged a musical
union that is truly inspired. Performing, composing and producing in
collaborative and solo recordings, this musical power couple has amassed an
impressive body of work.
And now with AYRES, their latest collaboration, they are once again hitting
new heights! Here is a rich and beautifully conceived album. An album who's
spirit invites the listener to immerse themselves in a very personal and soul
soothing musical experience.

Star Kaleidoscope

"Love is..." endeavors to convey the strength and sentiment of love through music. It draws upon the many forms of love that have shaped my life—romantic, familial, and platonic—and the lives of those with whom I’ve shared these connections.      
 
Love is a profound and intricate emotion, defined by deep affection, attachment, and care. It has the power to uplift us with immense joy and, at times, to break us with sorrow. In all its forms, love binds us, moves us, and shapes the way we live and relate to the world.

The music of American pianist and composer, Carol Comune dances between the serious and the light, the traditional and contemporary, with strong influences from her Italian heritage, Impressionism to Romanticism. Her lyricism paired with technical precision have earned her a reputation as one of today’s premiere pianists, performing extensively throughout the eastern United States both as a soloist and a chamber musician. She has been a featured artist in Boston at the New England Conservatory of Music, Gardner Museum, Art Complex at Duxbury, and Longfellow National Historic Site; in New York City at Lincoln Center and Steinway Hall; in Palm Beach at Flagler Museum and Kravis Center; along with recitals featured on National Public Radio (NPR).

A multi-faceted musician, teacher, composer, recording artist and Steinway Artist. Ms. Comune founded, Elegant Entertainment & Co.

Her music is featured on National Public Radio worldwide; online stations such as Pandora, Spotify, Apple iTunes, and Amazon; Enlightened Piano Radio; and Whisperings Solo Piano Radio.  Ms. Comune’s music has also been featured on the NBC Today Show.   

“Her touch is effortless and masterful, gracefully defying categorization. Her original compositions soften the lines between classical, pop, and ragtime, creating a distinctive style of her own.” - Mainly Piano Review, 2016 .

Carol founded Comune Music Press, dedicated to producing beautiful, imaginative and expressive piano music in the Classical/Contemporary genre and New Age Contemporary genre for the serious student. Her compositions have been described as, “charming,” “bold,” “imaginative and colorful,” and “exceptional.” Her music was featured at the prestigious 30th Annual Contemporary Music - For the Young, Weston,MA; Piano Teachers Forum, NJ; and performances by both professional pianists and students.

She is a member of MTNA: NJ, PA, NEPTA; BMI and a Steinway Artist.

Since capturing her attention at age three, Carol Comune continues to be mesmerized by the piano’s sounds, touch and the ability to express one’s sentiments, passions and love all in one instrument. This early affinity for music led to a scholarship for piano and solfege  with alumnus of the Paris Conservatoire, Mme. Yvonne Combe at the French School of Music in Plainfield, New Jersey. She is a graduate of the New England Conservatory of Music, Boston, MA (BM in Piano Performance with David Hagan). She continued graduate studies in Piano Pedagogy with Jean Stackhouse (NEC); Composition with John Felice (NEC); and influential mentors Donald Waxman; the late concert pianist, Anthony di Bonaventura, a master teacher of international stature; and celebrated Russian teacher Madame Isabelle Vengerova.
