Composition Notes:
Over the past year I've been listening a lot and learning how to play music by Bach. My piece "Memory Invention" takes a similar progression as some of his keyboard works and adds strings to it. The two alternate versions couple this with the idea of how what we remember about an event changes and can even deteriorate over time.

Abstraktes #7 continues my series of solo piano music exploring the line between improvisation and composition.

"Tramontane" - New EP "Lou Vènt"  out now!

After reading about the senseless and completely unnecessary death of a toddler in a situation that should never have happened I found myself moved to write this piece of music. 

I can't explain why this one tragedy in a world full of loss and heartache has moved me, but it has.

I'm sad and angry about this - and if I were to put how I feel into words then this would be a half hour rant... so I'll let the music speak for itself. 

If you want to read what moved me to write this the news story is here: https://edition.cnn.com/2019/07/08/us/toddler-falls-cruise-ship-trnd/index.html

I don't want to profit in any way so this track is not set to monetise  and it is freely downloadable. I just want to share awareness of this senseless tragedy.
