collaborations

It's my first and hopefully not last collaboration with the wonderful Dirk Maassen. 
I was very pleased when Dirk asked me to record a guitar part to his piece Déjà vu.
I recorded 2 versions, an improvised version and a more composed version. I decided to post my improvised version. It simply has more charisma and contrast to the piano.
Hope you enjoy ...
I appreciate every comment, but I'm on a journey and can not reply until end of August.


don't miss Dirk Massen if you don't already know him

It's my first collaboration with the wonderful Noemi Bolojan from Vienna. This piece based on an older guitar piece of mine “Twilight No.3” of the “4 short twilight scenes”. She has created amazing music around my piece, a real earwig. Thank you so much Noemi. I hope you enjoy it as much as I do.

Jens: classical guitar
Noemi: vocals, lyrics other instruments & arrangement

This Moment
when you could turn
everything around
start it all over
again
with your feet on the ground

walk again
feel no fear
make all the difference
before and now

do you see
do your hear
to you feel
the heartbeat
the heartbeat of your life

this moment
when you could turn everything around
start all over again
with your feet on the ground

this moment
do you feel
the heartbeat
of your Life

If you've been following my Blues piano tunes for a while, you'll know that it was a style of playing that captivated me as a child/teenager.But it's only been in recent years that I feel I'm getting deeper into the genre & finding all the nooks & crannies I never noticed before. Maybe I'm maturing as a musician, or maybe I've just got a thick head & it's taken this long to knock it into me :) Enjoy this improvisation, based on the 12 Bar Blues motif & get to understand why I needed to crawl before I could walk.

Here is the Youtube link to this tune :)

Crawl Before You Walk

This is a piece I recorded for Nils Frahm's Piano Day. 

Fragile.

When I was improvising this piece of music it almost felt like an extension of how I was feeling in that moment.

People have commented that it reminds them of a child playing with an old music box.

It is the 5th volume of the Piano Textures series started in 2007.
Analog Mastered by Ian Hawgood
"Bruno Sanfilippo’s imagination knows no bounds. The prolific pianist and composer has poured a lifetime exploring contemporary classical patterns and minimalism into his Piano Textures series, records of austere beauty and quiet, melancholic reflection. Piano Textures 5, his latest release, expands on this palette, yet feels freer and looser. From the opening track, which sounds like sunrise on a spring day, Sanfilippo imbues the music with lightness and a sense of optimism – songs float by, as if on a cloud. The result is his most open, engaging work yet, songs for the heart that speak to the joy of life" ad21

It's a joy to work with Davide Costa, both musically and personally. I love his inspiring and passionate feeling for deep expression.

Time is different in music.
 Close and friendly it is drifting by
sometimes flying, sometimes even 
standing still, but never passing. 
Nothing gets lost – the first tone 
is not older than the last one.

All music is child of its time, but not bound by time. 
It arises from moments and lives in people.  
Listening to music you make it your own.

My name is Jens Felger and I live in the southwest of Germany.
I'm a composer, guitarist & music teacher.
I love music of nearly every style and I live music whenever I can.
Creating & listening to music is my elixir of life.
The classical guitar is my musical base camp and at the moment 
I'm concentrated on creating music for this instrument. 
I'm not focussed on a specific style but I can't deny my classical background.

recently I had the great honour of being soundclouder of the day

Sharing music and the emotions within on social networks gives me a peace I've never expected. Being part of this amazing & inspiring community on soundcloud changes the way I hear music, I feel music and influences the way I create music. Thanks to all of you for your fantastic support, this means a lot to me.
