Franz Gordon - A Heart Made Of Yarn (slowed)

From "Episodes" (2020), a great modern classical piece by Florian Christl, contemporary German composer and pianist.
This "Vivaldi Variation" is something more than a piano arrangement, it's a totally new very great song.
The original, by Vivaldi, is the Concerto for strings and basso continuo in G Minor, RV 156 (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=82gHYBkergU)

The French Library by Franz Gordon, played by me on piano

Franz Gordon - The French Library

Here comes a shortened version of my brand new improvisation. This one is a bit serious, but I still hope that you like it. I played and recorded it today. Just pure piano performance. My improvisations are always "free", meaning that I play without any concept. The music is most spontaneous. Please enjoy and share! You can find the full version here, too. Unfortunately
Soundcloud limits recommendations to ten minutes playtime. Some of my improvisations are much longer and I am not willing to limit myself into any algorithm !!!!

Revelation Behind Closed Eyes

1ère Gymnopédie.

Lent et douloureux.
Slow and sorrowful.

"Oblique et coupant l'ombre un torrent éclatant; Ruisselait en flots d'or sur la dalle polie; Où les atomes d'ambre au feu se miroitant; Mêlaient leur sarabande à la gymnopédie."

"Slanting and shadow-cutting a flickering eddy
Trickled in gusts of gold to the shiny flagstone
Where the atoms of amber in the fire mirroring themselves
Mingled their sarabande to the gymnopaedia"

- Contamine de Latour

The instrument is a Clavia Nord Stage 2 using a sampled Yamaha C7 with a generous amount of reverb and phaser, and a thin layer of strings.

ALL tracks are piano covers played by me on my Kawai CA78. Maybe some performances are just so so, I hope you'll enjoy the pieces, though!
