An instrumental improvisation of the beautiful classic song Feuille Morte. Also known as Autumn leaves. 



Feuille Morte

It was an improvisation to test the audio of the camera I was working with back then. But I thought it sounded quite okay, so I decided to share it :)

Halo 3 Never Forget Piano Cover

Kingdom Hearts Treasured Memories

Kingdom Hearts Lazy Afternoons cover

Final Fantasy Medley Piano Cover

Kingdom Hearts Traverse Town Piano Cover

This cover doesn't exactly follow the orginal melody. I played this song many times when I was a (little bit) younger. So I decided to make this cover on my memory of the song, so there are a few changes here and there. I didn't listen to the orginal song either while remembering and didn't use any sheets, so see this song as an experiment. Just wanted to see how it turned out if I played the song on my memory of it :)

Every non-working day I try to improvise at least 1 song. This is today's result. I don't want to overload my profile with improvisations so that's why I don't upload them every time. But if you'd like to hear more, please sent me a message. If you want a custom made improvisation for a certain mood or ambiance I'll be glad to make one for you. I can't do anything, but I'm always willing to try and learn ;) 

P.s. I'm not the best name-giver, so if you can come up with a fitting title also let me know. 

Improvisation IV

I heard this song for the first time in Shrek several years ago, that's why I decided to put the shrek album cover even though I know that there are many, many great covers and I believe Leonard Cohen is the original composer.

The first time playing the melody I want to keep it gently and peacefull, the second time with a bit more emotion and notes and the third time I changed the tempi a bit so that the final hallelujah chorus has more effect. Hope you'll like it :)

++++. PROFILE NOTES ++++

Once a wannabe, not yet a has been.

It had been over a decade since I put together a song,
and for that matter basically walked away from music altogether.
Losing hope that I would ever have the time to put into music again,
I finally gave away my 3rd music studio.
I ran across SoundCloud around 2013,
and thought I might take what few songs I had recorded, 
and lay them to rest there.
And there they languished.

HOWEVER, around 2017 I went back to SoundCloud
and began listening a little more and a little more,
and actively taking a part in visiting the sites
of so many wonderful musicians and beautiful songs.
Also, more and more often I would discover that these artists
were blossoming everywhere around the world,
and most definitely worthy of high praise and compliments.

Then suddenly, these old dead soundtracks right here
began to have a bit of life breathed back into them.
From the kind words that began to come trickling in,
I thought, maybe, someday I might give this music thing a try again.

The thing that finally pushed me into action
was a particular SoundCloud artist…Sander Heerings,
AKA https://soundcloud.com/wane-of-summer
 

Not only was he encouraging,
but he began faithfully responding to a few questions,
then a barrage of them.

The final result seemed to be that after a couple of months,
the Old Grinder now has a 4th studio and, finally, a new song.
I hope there may be many more to come.

Thank you Sander, and to the multitude that have dropped in
to listen to these old songs, 
and most of all, for perking up my spirits.
