I've been awake for 92 hours, the worst insomnia I've ever experienced, at the point where little makes sense and where my brain seems to be past the point of try to produce sleep chemicals due to my adrenal glands winning the battle. A brain fighting against itself. I was unable to calculate the number of hours I've been awake in my head and had to use a calculator, but I was still able to be coordinated enough to play this piece on the piano. Here is me desperately hoping for peace.

Winter's Dance

"Un morceau de piano néoclassique profondément émouvant et mélodique. Entre douceur et mélancolie, il invite à un voyage introspectif et plein de sensibilité."

Insaisissable

Dominic Maurice's latest piano EP "Piano Horizons" is a masterful journey through the depths of human emotion, captured with grace and subtlety across four evocative tracks. Each piece is a delicate exploration of beauty, tranquility, and reflection, creating an immersive experience for listeners.

From the opening notes, Maurice draws us into a space where time seems to slow down. The melodies are soft yet powerful, weaving between delicate arpeggios and moments of quiet intensity. The first track invites introspection, its gentle progression offering a sense of calm that gradually deepens, preparing the heart for the emotional voyage ahead.

As the EP unfolds, the second track introduces a bittersweet yearning, its flowing chords pulling at the heartstrings. It carries a certain vulnerability, a soft ache that reminds us of the complexity of emotions we often carry quietly within us. The tender harmonies evoke feelings of nostalgia, yet they are imbued with an unspoken hope, leaving the listener suspended in a beautiful, fleeting moment.

The third track brings a sense of lightness, its melodies dancing like sunlight through the trees. It is a refreshing breath of optimism, full of joy and quiet celebration. There is a lightness to the movement here, a gentle optimism that leaves a lingering warmth in its wake, evoking the sense of joy found in small, yet meaningful, moments.

In the final piece, Maurice brings everything full circle with a piece of serene, quiet resolution. The gentle, final notes feel like a peaceful surrender, as though finding solace in the quiet space left by the music. There is a profound sense of closure, a subtle peace that settles, leaving the listener with a full heart and a mind at ease.

This piano EP from Dominic Maurice is a beautiful reflection of the spectrum of emotions we experience. It captures both the gentle and the intense, the bittersweet and the uplifting, offering an intimate soundscape that speaks directly to the soul.

Apart

Caprice is a fantasy, original dance work for flute, oboe and string orchestra. 
I focused on keeping it a light, lyrical and whimsical dialogue for the flute and oboe and kept the strings as accompaniment with a few exceptions.
