It's my first and hopefully not last collaboration with the wonderful Dirk Maassen. 
I was very pleased when Dirk asked me to record a guitar part to his piece Déjà vu.
I recorded 2 versions, an improvised version and a more composed version. I decided to post my improvised version. It simply has more charisma and contrast to the piano.
Hope you enjoy ...
I appreciate every comment, but I'm on a journey and can not reply until end of August.


don't miss Dirk Massen if you don't already know him

Asturian Jig Set

Each of us has a destiny already written!
Nothing happens by chance but it all depends on what you have to purify your soul.
Listen to your soul and you will always be full of energy!

I hope you appreciate this piece. I must be honest, Cubase was critical to create this track. I had it for a long time in my head. I tried many times to play it but it was never good. I'm not such a good piano player, so I decided to record two sections: one for the harmony and the other for the melody. I hope you appreciate, however, the composition and the passion with which I played. 
Your comments give me the strength to continue this my musical adventure!Thanks for your attention my friends !!

This EP is the journey I had to take when I transitioned into making music instead of performing music composed by others. Because of an injury I had to find my voice through sounds rather than my instrument. 
This was more than two years ago and this music has been on my computer since. This was prior to making Amsterdam Sessions with Sjors Mans. 
I've been going back and forth on whether this would stay on my computer forever or not. 
But in the end I had to share it one way or the other. I'm extremely thankful that piano and coffee records believed in the material and pushed me to release it at times where I had doubts.

My hope with this EP, Amsterdam Session and the material I'm working on right now will paint a picture of how I've evolved as an artist. If you'd listen to the three compilations of music you would hear me learn how to play the piano, take my first baby steps as producer/audio engineer and finally slowly find my way back to the trumpet.
I'm super nervous to share this (as always). I really hope you will find it pleasurable. Or at least not horrible 😉 I'm quite proud that it finally off my hard drive and is flying free!

I joined the Piano Cloud this week and thought perhaps I should make a piano track to celebrate. But the rest of you should keep the cork in that bottle: my piano skills being pretty limited you will very quickly understand why I haven't made one before. That should explain the title!

The chord track was a one run improvisation and then I improvised a melody line over the top...though it took a few attempts to line up this second track to the first. For the techies, the sound is the NNXT default grand piano patch in Reason, and I play on a semi-weighted M-Audio Keystation 88.

...Night... Notte... the time of silence, dreams, reflections.. the time when the music happens in between notes more than in the notes themselves. 

It’s two hours past midnight... it's calm, dark and quiet.. all you can hear is distant echoes..

"Notte" is released on all major platforms! You can listen to the entire album on Spotify or Apple Music, or get it on Amazon, Google Play or BandCamp. I can also send you an autographed CD!

This is Barrios' Villancico de Navidad (Christmas Carol). It took many takes before I could get the recording down.

I am a working full-time musician, teaching, performing, composing, recording and arranging, and my gigs in the last few years have included jazz combo, big band jazz, folk, Irish traditional, rock, soul, latin, klezmer, funk, orchestral, chamber, minimal techno, musical theatre and more, so, safe to say, I’ll have a go at anything. 

I'm a firm believer in demolishing boundaries between genres, cultures, languages and ultimately people, and Soundcloud is a terrific place where all this can happen.
