Jay B.A. is an up and coming Rap Artist from Dayton, Ohio, who realized his gift for music and uncanny ability to create music which people are drawn to, after high school.  He has previously released a few recordings whilst traveling, and living in numerous states such as... Texas, Mississippi, and New Mexico.  Now residing out of Charlotte, NC, he is fully dedicated to chasing his dream, and is a true candidate for becoming Hip-Hop's very own new young talent.  He is currently working on his new project "Wright Brother", given the name, stems from him being born-and-raised in Ohio, and now in North Carolina where he plans for his success to take flight, like the Wright Brothers.  His sound is like no other, he relates to the newer generation, while still having that passion, and lyricism of the early to late 90's.  He is very confident in his work, which can be sensed from a quote of his very own, "I am not a Rapper, I'm an Artist... I create masterpieces muhfucka".  So listen and stay tuned, for he is continuously dropping music for the masses to love!  #BHE

Playing piano since I was four and studied in a musical school for ten years. Though, I always felt that playing by notes and singing in a choir is not enough to become a musician. I needed to be able to play anything I want by ear so, by starting improvising, I've found my own style of playing. When I teach children to play piano or sing, I offer them improvisation right from the beginning. I wish I was taught that way, since until my mid-30s I had hard times to relax and believe in my ability to create my own music. Twelve years ago my husband (@arty-sandler) finally convinced me to record some of my improvisations and we opened this account on SoundCloud - it happened in July, 2012.

You won't find a single particular genre on my cloud: my musical tastes are rather eclectic. Jazz and soft rock are my favorites but I also play blues, classical, folk, middle-eastern, New Age, ambient and others. Piano and vocal are my main instruments but together with my husband we also experiment a lot with different arrangements and orchestrations. 

When we started uploading our music to SoundCloud back in 2012, it was first shy attempts to record my improvisations straight from a keyboard. Many things have evolved since then. Over the years we've grown into a professional recording and composing studio, with a conservatory grand piano in an acoustically treated room and a bunch of microphones and other recording equipment. We scored a few documentaries, short films and animations. This year my orchestral and piano solo works were performed by Leipzig Gewandhaus Orchestra for Bryan Arias’s ballet show based on “The Little Prince” story. We've published three books with my original scores for solo piano and released twenty original full-length albums (solo piano, multi-instrumental and original songs in various genres) and numerous singles that have been streamed over 70 million times across multiple platforms.

I am glad you stepped by into my musical world and appreciate your comments and following me.

We're not the best, but we're pretty good.
