Steinway artist, Chad Lawson, decided Chopin needed a new introduction.  Along with violinist Judy Kang (Lady Gaga, Ryuichi Sakamoto) and cellist Rubin Kodheli (Kanye West, Norah Jones), Lawson has arranged ten Chopin works into a minimalist landscape.

It's a risk editing the "poet of the piano" but one that Chopin would be proud of.  

Taking 10 Chopin works, Lawson decided to scale the works down to a minimalist setting.  "I knew even if bare-bones, Chopin's works could still be as spellbinding as the original compositions we are so familiar with." says the pianist.  

Produced by Chad Lawson & Alejandro Clavijo. Mixed by Stephen Lee Price.  Mastered by Michael Graves of Osiris Studios (Atlanta, GA).

My concoction of Taireva on Katsanzira dongonda tuning. This inspiration came in the midst of the COVID pandemic July 2020 shortly before and after Sekuru Cosmas Magaya passed away. Rest in peace Sekuru. The part is similar in structure to a Bangidza part I learnt from him.
And singing lines from Ambuya Beauler Dyoko and Chartwell Dutiro.
