Variation 18 of Rachmaninoff's Rhapsody on a Theme of Paganini composed in 1934. Rachmaninoff said of this piece: "This one, is for my agent." as he sensed it would become a commercial hit. It's composed by playing upside down the original melody from Paganini. The original is like a piano concerto (solo piano vs orchestra) and I'm trying to do it on a single keyboard with sampled sounds.

The theme was used in the movie Somewhere in Time in 1980 starring Christopher Reeve and Jane Seymour.

The instrument is a Clavia Nord Stage 2 using a sampled Bösendorfer grand piano and sampled orchestra strings.

Transcription for solo piano by Hermene W. Eichhorn. Re-uploaded with new take on Jan 26, 2014.

La Valse d'Amélie - Ahmed Emad - Piano Solo

Three piano compositions entitled "Gymnopédies" written by French composer and pianist Erik Satie (1866 – 1925). 
These short, gentle and atmospheric pieces are written in 3/4 time, with each sharing a common theme and structure. Collectively, the Gymnopédies are regarded as an important precursor to modern ambient music.

The instruments are a Kawai VPC1 controlling a Nord Stage 2 using a sampled Bösendorfer upright piano with effects and sampled strings. I also used ambient room mics to perhaps add some presence to the mix.
