So much good stuff here! The musical communication between the two of you is kind of a lesson in respectfully listening to each other, and making one thing. Fantastic musicianship. (As a guitarist, Tim's Tele has the most amazing tone!)

Fantastic piano work..love the ambient atmosphere..great mood changer..great mix & recording!

Lovely improv! Lots of fun happening here.

this truly soars in such a beautifully hypnotic way

The beginning of the piano part is sublime .... and your accomplice with this particular gift and style accompanies you here, in an excellent way .... You are both in tune with a great mutual respect. Very good interpretation that is this concept.

Delicate and nicely nostalgic enriched by ethereal timbre of the piano notes and poetic guitar riffs. Congrats to both of You. :))

This beautiful track for me conjured whale song...gulls soaring above in soft warm air. Wonderful ethereal track

Enigma

This came out of a piece I'd been developing over a couple of weeks, searching for variations around a central theme on felt piano. After a couple of less than successful attempts at developing the track with a fixed bpm I ended up freestyling it as an improv with some subtle drones from Spitfire labs Foghorn, a unique and free library of sounds derived from recordings of the Sumburgh head Foghorn on Shetland. 
One of the options in the labs library is a selection of engine room noises from the two diesel engines that power the foghorn, I wondered whether the engine room could stand in for percussion on the track and here is the result. Thanks for taking time out to check it out.

Préludes Op.11 No.14

그대 나를 봐요 
떠날때까진 날 잊지마요
별 볼일 없는 꿈일지라도 절대 깨어나지마요
지치고 다친채로 거릴 뛰다 넘어진다고 해도
제발 울지는 말아요

답답한가요 푹 꺼진 어깨가 신경쓰여요
별 볼일 없는 일에 쓰는 시간이 정말 싫은가요
젊음의 연속된 고난이 너무나 지겹다 해도
도망치지는 마요

날 믿어요 그대에게
이 불꽃을 터뜨려 보내요

내 몸이 터질때
어둔밤의 붉은 잔상의 춤을
내 몸이 터질때
널 비추는 저 불빛들에
터져오르는 영원한 춤을 기억해요
그대에게 내가

날 믿어요 그대에게
이 불꽃을 터뜨려 보내요.

그대 나를 봐요 떠날때까진 날 잊지마요
별볼일 꿈일지라도 절대 깨어나지마요


내 몸이 터질때
어둔밤의 붉은 잔상의 춤을
내 몸이 터질때
널 비추는 저 불빛들에
터져오르는 영원한 춤을 기억해요
그대에게 내가

There's no doubt about it, Music animates my Soul, and as an enthusiastic student of Life and a passionate Improvisational Pianist &  Composer,  as far as I'm concerned,  our lives would be impoverished without it ! :)  Composing is all about 'Sharing the Joy, Passion and Angst' we experience in Life, as well as connecting up with Musicians and 'Creatives' worldwide. This makes it even more wonderful!  That willingness to engage in whatever way makes SC an ever-expanding Movable Feast that nourishes and inspires on so many levels. 

Music Communicates the Emotional and Informational Content and Context of Heart, Mind, Spirit, and Soul. And 'Letting it Flow' is 'Where Its At' as I hear it!  

Over the past few years since becoming part of the SoundCloud Family, my 'Joy in and Passion for' Creative Musical Expression has increased exponentially as has my appreciation of all the wonderfully passionate Musicians and Creatives worldwide who have devoted themselves to Letting It Take Form! 

Here's a bit of a bio, if anyone is interested.  

Somehow, my MUSE got my attention at a tender age. About the time I was completing my Royal Conservatory training. 

My memory being poorer than most, I began improvising in the passages I had forgotten. And while the audience seemed unaware, my teacher chastised me indulgently, saying, "it appears I have a budding composer on my hands"!  And thus began my Odyssey into the wonderful Vibrational world of Sound!:-) In-deed, I have been an ardent, attentive and appreciative acolyte of my Muse ever since. 

During the early 1970s I had the pleasure and honour of a three year friendship and Master Class with the then Octogenarian Composer Manoah Leide-Tedesco , one of Tone Poem giant Richard Strauss` favorite pupils and friend of Maurice Ravel and other 20th century composers such as Stravinsky (whose music he helped popularize). Since then, whether Improvising, listening, studying composition or devoting myself wholly to the visual arts for years at a time, I have been deeply aware that sharing my musical insights , teaching, and or mentoring young aficionados came with the territory!   I love it, although I am afraid that as my consciousness expands...that I know less and less each year! :-)  

The Tonal Oasis called SoundCloud is a fine and wondrous place in oh so many ways.  And with your support and appreciation, I de-Light to share my music with an ever widening audience. I call what i upload ' Sound-Seeds'.  Most of these 'bed tracks' call out to be fleshed out by passionate soloists who somehow Resonate with my Soundz and Ideas.  So please drop me a line, as i am most interested in letting them bear more fruit through collaboration, interpretation, re-mixing or use in other media.    

And on a personal Note, a Huge Thank-You to each and all who listen, inJoy, and Re-Post onwards what finds it's way thru me! :) Bless y'all.  It's my Joy to simply 'Let' the Creative Spirit find expression through this instrument of Body, Mind, and Heart!  I hope you will find some peace, joy, and rest, in at least some of my improvisations, compositions, or soundz. 

Insofar as playing, and composing  ... as you continue on in Your journey into  the infinite 'Cave of Wonders' we call Music, I wish you all the very best in all Your creative endeavours. 

So Be Kind to yourSelves and one another. Be Audacious, Ready to Play, and above all, share the Joy of being able to express whatever you're feeling. 

In-deed, may The Muse continue to 'Sing on and Play on' through each of us !   For this is one way this 'ol world is lifted up, and Changed for the better - note by note, and smile by smile .  

 Yes, may we simply Let our Creativity flow forth without concern for results.
                                   Peace

                                    Gary *+*
