Had I not known Debra was playing, and had been required to guess the identity of the pianist, the sensitivity and attention to detail on display might have led me to conjecture it had been played by Murray Perahia, my favourite concert pianist of all time

Excellent musical interpretation of themes andtouching melodic playing makes this track specially rewarding

Really gorgeous arrangement, Debra. Refreshing to hear this without singers...

This is something from heaven.. Absolutely delightful and sublime rendition..

Another listen to this outstanding performance Debbie. Closing my eyes I am transported to musical heaven....Thank you .

Mood Exhibit - Focal [from the album Focal]

Another composition recorded before the war. I hope one day I will return to my home studio. Any support from you is much appreciated on these extremely hard times for our country, our family. 
I could have recorded much new music for the last 9 months... unless russians came to our yard to "save" us with their tanks, missiles, bombs and war planes at 4 a.m. on Feb 24th. And yes, they saved us from our house, from our normal life, from our dreams and plans. They saved my elderly parents from their home and peaceful life in retiring, saved my daughter from happy childhood, from school, from her friends and vacation by the sea. We'll never forget and never forgive it! I'm sure that russia will get what it deserves - each rocket they launch on Ukraine will turn to another 10 years of disaster for their cowardly people.
 Special thanks to Houman (@houmans) for mastering the track! Please check out his wonderful soundtracks.

Bach Fantasia on a Bleak Midwinter

(Written by Terry Reeves)
Terry Reeves: Lead Vocals
Gary Reeves: Drums, Cajon
Hans Albers: All other instruments, Arrangement & Production

This was one of those songs that was inspired by something Hans wrote,  prompting an idea of the movement of water representing the melding of musical ideas.

Whilst we were working on “Release The Ashes”, he sent me a working arrangement in an email, signing off with the words "Love from The Elbe to The Thames”.  Friends and family often say things that spark song ideas and this poetic  greeting stuck in my mind.

I looked at a map that showed The Elbe flowing into The North Sea and The Thames into the Estuary a little to the south and imagined the two bodies of water flowing toward each other, intertwining back and forth, much as the song ideas between Hans, Gary and myself are inclined to do when we’re working on something.

So I have to thank Hans on two counts, both for bringing the idea to mind and also for the arrangement he created, which to me is very special.  Hope you do too.  Many thanks for listening.

The river runs from Elbe toThames
Connection between distant friends 
North Sea growing back and forth
Mixture giving and taking at source 

A watery song with dance 
Dispersing over distance
Ebb and flow with a chance 
Avoiding tide resistance

Mersey mixture in history and song
Salt water blends and tries to belong
Move East to West, North To South
Trickle of ideas by word of mouth

A watery song and dance 
Dispersing over distance
Ebb and flow with a chance 
Avoiding tide resistance

River to river to river to river to river...

Tidal transfer of words and music
Echoing sounds, a demo acoustic 
Treaty of Versailles to Parliament plaque 
Rules of agreement, musical track

A watery song and dance 
Dispersing over distance
Ebb and flow with a chance
Avoiding tide resistance

The river runs from Thames to Elbe
Passing secrets, some to be held
Musical water with mixture to last
Ferry sails sea with historical past 

A watery song and dance 
Dispersing over distance
Ebb and flow with a chance
Avoiding tide resistance

River to river
River to river
River to river to river to river….

Teamed up with IPG1 again and we cranked out this cool rocker.  This one was lots of fun. This is from his vocal performance on the track "Oh Yeah Lou" found here -

Oh Yeah Lou
Stars aligning I keep grinding
check the styles that I’m combining
try to get to know who I be
if you hear me then you feel me
are you ready—-now rock with me
now rock with me —-now rock with me
when do verses overlap
it’s so cool it’s called snowcapped
give-and-take that’s tit for tat
the cool comments thanks for that
the contrast the impact
steadfast not typecast
The vibe I bring kickass
slow your row don’t move too fast
the real power is laid-back
I sure as hell don’t take no crap
when I flex it’s payback
dropping tracks just like that
rock with me it’s jampacked
back-and-forth then switch back
roll on out you scaredy-cat
or hang tight and interact
but I don’t do no contract

The great hunter in exile? There are different versions of how Orion the voracious hunter of Greek mythology came to hang in the sky as a constellation. Possibly as a reward by Zeus or maybe a punishment by his 'ex' Artemis for his evil doings...having been previously blinded by the king of Chios for trying it on with his daughter...he then stepped on a scorpion which finished him off! Hero or villain he was blasted into space and remains with a great close-up view of the amazing Horsehead nebula (pictured).

Best described as eclectic, my style is a soothing mix mirroring my personality: mostly mellow with the occasional outburst. Although I have a background in classical piano I have always loved to create and improvise.  Since early childhood I have been trying to duplicate on the piano what I hear in my head.  Now I see how formal studies and improvisation fit together perfectly. I hope to always keep growing and learning, reflecting the beauty of Christ in all my endeavors. Thank you for your kind listening.

A small note on my own behalf: I have noticed that my playback figures have dropped dramatically. The statistics show that the number of playbacks has dropped from 2000 per week to just under 200.
On the one hand, this is frustrating, as everyone sees this as an indicator and confirmation of their work. On the other hand, figures are not particularly important, but one wonders what is wrong. In my opinion, SC has changed a lot, uploading tracks has become more complicated and constant security queries are annoying.
In addition, great artists are disappearing from the platform, partly by their own choice, partly because they have been banned, the algorithm has “recognized” them as spam and mercilessly deleted their account. I'm still a paying member, but my attitude towards this has changed...

Please let me know your experiences and impressions.

********************************************************************

A long, long time ago, there was an organ in the Christmas-decorated living room in his parents' house, where Frank grew up. Originally bought by his father for his two older siblings, they showed no interest in playing the organ. Frank, however, did. White and black keys and giving off strange sounds. 

So at the age of 9 he began to let his fingers circle on this instrument, searching for the right keys like on a typewriter. And another 9 years would pass before he could buy his first own instrument. Already at the age of 13 he made notes about the then current synthesizers, bought one magazine after the other and visited music fairs in Frankfurt, Germany.

His first keyboard was the Yamaha DSR-2000, which he bought in a music store near his hometown Biebertal. In installments! Finally he could develop himself further - away from the limited tonality of the small organ. The built-in 8-track sequencer helped him to reach unimagined heights. 
Little by little his equipment expanded and his ambition to create music like that of Jean-Michel Jarres came closer. Influenced by this and countless other musicians of the time, his interest grew, but he taught himself everything. Not even having attended a music school or being able to read music at all, he wrote one song after another and recorded them on the only medium available to him at the time: audio cassettes.
Many of these recordings are unfortunately lost forever, because cassettes are and were not the best recording medium. He has to try to play many of his songs from memory. 

In 2007, he fulfilled a long-awaited wish: to buy a KORG. He had always wanted to own one, but with the latest synthesizers at the time of their release having a purchase price of over 6000 D-marks (the currency of the time in the 1980s and 1990s), that dream of owning one was far away. So in 2007 he bought a used KORG 01W/FD at ebay. And as before with the purchase of the Yamaha keyboard, a completely new world opened up to him.

In addition, there were expanders and sound modules from Kawai, Roland and Yamaha (K1m, SC-55, QY10). Six years later his enthusiasm for making music ebbed and rediscovered his hobby (which it always was and still is). In 2018 in April he decided to present his music to a wider audience and uploaded his first song on the platform soundcloud. Since that time, thanks also to the ever-evolving software, he continues to evolve, experiment and relive his times through music.
