I am happy to announce the release of my 2nd original piano album! I consider the pieces included in this album to be my best compositions, recorded in 2013. The album has some tracks, which are not included in this set.

I hope you will enjoy them as much as I enjoyed playing them. Your support is very much appreciated as it brings me closer to achieving one of my dreams - to have a real acoustic grand piano. Thank you for your continuous appreciation of my music!

"Danzarín" by Julián Plaza is undoubtly part of the unspoken "canon" of sacred pieces of the tango world. Here we listen Juan María Solare's version for solo piano.

Every composer has a signature piece, not necessarily his best, which defines his style, his intimacy. Danzarín (Little Dancer) is thus a concentration of Julián Plaza's artistic personality. The first theme, a rhythm injection, builds on a pianistic device called "campanitas" or little bells: rhythmed dissonances in the high register. Typical of this composer is a second theme cantabile in the cello register. (From the liner notes of Solare's CD "Tango Monologues", http://www.juanmariasolare.com/CD_tango_monologues.html)

This is my  submission to the second part of 'The Piano Clouds' (TPC) - 'Ebony and Ivory' Challenge (initiated and hosted by https://soundcloud.com/simon-reich), which involves creating a piece using only the black keys on the piano (yikes! hehe). The first part of the Challenge involved creating a piece using only the white keys ('As the Garden Grows'). This 'black keys'  piece was originally a piano solo improvisation, but I wanted to learn more and add some more FX and instrumentation, so I'm not sure what it is! The piano is still dominant for the Challenge, whilst I tried to incorporate a more 'ambient' mood. I'm now looking forward to listening to all the submissions for the Challenge, as I've only had a chance to listen to a few! :-) 

If you'd like to listen and give some feedback, especially given this approach to music is still relatively new to me, its always much appreciated :-) xx



When The Night Falls - Megs McCarthy (Black Keys Challenge)

Brahms - Albumblatt

One of my 'Songs without Words' that brought me great pleasure in the composing. It has intensity in various ways: the intellectual counterpoint of the opening (like a baroque 2-part invention - the hands swap over on its second appearance), the tension of the second idea - withdrawn and wistful (or tragic), and the luscious romantic arching melodies of the third passage. These ideas each come round three times in various keys. At the end, the opening idea has the final word, but now in a heavyweight intensification. Please enjoy...!
