Great composition that is better understood with the sung version.

Hey Conrad man, love hearing the piano sans vocals, too. This is a really kinetic piece, full of energy and life. Excellent work here, man!

The shopping queue gives you plenty of time to think. A song full of energy with a great rtythm ;)

Love the dynamics and your interpretation

Great bluesy playing with great energy.....really enjoying it

more than my usual ambience on the guitar, but I convinced myself it  worked for the vibe I was attempting and the guitar sustain. Thanks for listening.

This is a teaser for my upcoming first vocal song which will be published on December 6, 2024. Yeah, finally I will do lyrics:-)
The inspiration for this came last when I was shopping for our New Years Party - as always on the last day and as always all the people in Vienna had the same idea. As I stood in the queue, I imagined how things could escalate if would let my anger loose. Just hypothetically, of course. Hope, you enjoy the result and will listen into the vocal version on Dec 6.
Compositionwise, the track has a boogie structure with the left hand chromatically going up and an octavating thumb like in c0-c1-d0-c1-es0-c1-g0-c1. The right hand strongly uses syncopes to instill the rhythm onto the track. Slight variations in the rhythm keep the tension like, e.g. comparing the very beginning with 0:45 ff.  The track is mostly being in the modes I, IV and V (C, F, G). 
Over time, the mood of the piece changes from relaxed and happy to ever more tense with a final relieve at the end. 

The track has been recorded via a pianoTeq Steinway (no after-effects). Cover with Dallee

The days came by then went away,
The timing never right
I looked around and then it passed
The day turned into night

Catching up with time and space
You don’t know what you’ll get
But i know whats not going on
Cos nothing’s happened yet

Reaching out to grasp the day
Then suddenly it’s night
Blink and you could miss it
As life just walks on by

I could’ve turned the other way
The feeling came so fast
Quickly went away again
Just wasn’t meant to last

It stopped me in my tracks
I didn’t know where to turn
Making the same mistake again
When will i ever learn

Reaching out to grasp the day
Then suddenly it’s night
Blink and you could miss it
As life just walks on by

The days came by then went away,
The timing never right
I looked around and then it passed
The day turned into night

It stopped me in my tracks
I didnt know where to turn
Making the same mistake again
When will i ever learn

Reaching out to grasp the day
Then suddenly it’s night
Blink and you could miss it
…
Reaching out to grasp the day
Then suddenly it’s night
Blink and you could miss it
As life just walks on by

I wrote the flute part for a friend. In this case it is played with midi.  The harp is played with a little celtic harp.

The struggle against the machines has gone on for centuries, and will no doubt continue. They have destroyed the lives of billions, but they are not the enemy - power is. Deal with power, and then human and machine can evolve together in harmony.

Trouble at Mill

The piano is not just an instrument; it is a storyteller. My lifelong companion. Each piece holds the memory of a moment in time, of a period in life. Here, I share my personal journey—one miniature, one experiment, one story at a time.

I’m Konrad Spittelberg, 52 years old. Though I’ve always called Vienna my home, I have pursued various interests, building an interdisciplinary background that spans education in Latin and Greek, studies of Mathematics, Physics and Economics and a carreer in Consulting and Risk Management. Sometimes, you might also find me immersed in games of Go, Chess or D&D. 

But only when I’m not making music. Of course. Still then, all of my interests have shaped the way I think — and, in turn, the way I compose.

The instrument of my life is the piano. I play it since the age of six, the first 16 in music school with my dedicated teacher Margarete Gerlach (and also thanks to the city of Vienna to the incredible publicly funded music schools!). My piano playing saw multiyear interruptions due to travel and workload. But in recent years I’ve found the time to pursue my passion again—with renewed joy. I devote many of my evenings to developing, refining and rehearsing my piano miniatures. 

I inhale music wherever I find it. In the echoes of Renaissance motets or contemporary cluster music with my local choir, which I joined 30 years ago. In music running in the background of a fashion store which I Shazaam for later enjoyment. Or live concerts - there are so many gifted artists in the world! 

My music is a dialogue between tradition and exploration. Rooted in classical and romantic traditions, it ventures into jazz, rock, and pop.  I love to experiment—playing with unexpected tonalities, syncopated rhythms, and dynamic contrasts. My compositions often evolve through shifts in tension, rhythmic complexity, and harmonic modulations, sometimes venturing across the circle of fifths. I’m also diving deeper into the art of mastering, an area where I still have much to explore.

If my music speaks to you, I’d love for you to follow my journey. Follow along, share your thoughts—whether in appreciation or in challenge. Music, after all, is meant to be a conversation—and I’d love to hear your voice in it.
Enjoy your time with my music!
