En Attendant Ton Retour

Valse grise

There are always those nights when our thoughts or experiences don't let us sleep. This composition was created from an improvisation of a sleepless night and reflects the peace, the magic but also the loneliness of the night and its influence on humans.

Sleepless

The Lullaby Of North

Looking at the domino playing, I imagined the piano keys falling one after another, in a timeless manner, an wave like spiral moving to the flow of the music. Gentle piano, soft touching, atmospheric sound and cascading notes leading into a state of dreaming and meditation. Hopefully it will resonate with people looking for the perfect piano song.

Les Aventures de Violet

My name is Sacha Hoedemaker, and I am a Dutch composer. I have played the piano since I was eight years old; honing my craft bit by bit. I got picked up quite early in my career by successful directors and producers. They offered me to work behind the scenes, which was a tremendous opportunity for me to work on my songwriting-skills. 



I started working on numerous projects; I wrote compositions for commercials, shows, and indie-movies. It dawned on me that my work mainly helped other people excel in their career — which isn’t necessarily a bad thing. But whenever I wrote a great composition, the producer got the credits. Over time, my job left me unfulfilled; it felt like I was not living up to my true potential — in other words, things had to change. 

And luckily for me, change came earlier than I expected. I always say, “You never know how things will turn out. Whatever happens, happens. The important thing is that you followed your gut.” And I did. It still feels a bit unreal to me, but I am so proud to announce my music to you.

Christel was born in the Netherlands. At age ten, she taught herself to play the piano. In 2019 she discovered her passion for composing music. Although Christel has a love for many different music genres, the music she writes is mainly influenced by (neo)classical and cinematic music.

In 2021 she released her first album 'Watershed'. It is a collection of solo piano songs that reflect different moods. Whether it’s peaceful, uplifting, energetic, dramatic or epic, it’s always passionate. “I get really excited when I notice that my mood changes when I play a certain piece.”

‘Landslide’ is Christel’s second album. “I enthusiastically started writing new compositions for a new album. But I soon found myself in a difficult phase. Music is based on emotions and experiences and is always personal, so putting yourself out there feels very vulnerable. I felt like I wasn’t worth doing this, that I should give up. But at the same time, giving up didn’t feel right either. When I want to clear my mind I always take a walk in the woods near my house. There I like to listen to some music and admire the beauty in nature, using my imagination and fantasy. Sometimes I pretend God walks with me. During these walks I found new hope and inspiration. This album is about my journey through a ‘fairytale forest’. My journey of accepting these feelings without holding myself back, but to move forward instead.”
