It's funny how your improvisations mirror your feelings and states of mind... the future sounds bright and promising, at times; others, gloomy and mysterious.... Your playing is a rollercoaster ride of emotions

But you know what? In spite of the fears, the doubts, the indecisions, your music always reflects HOPE. You're always positive in your music. That's what I feel from what I hear.

This track was originally recorded on April 17th, 2017.  

I've done a lot of recording over the last couple months but I have had very little time to go back to listen through it all.  I finally had a chance to come back to this recording which, like my recent set from January 24th, is part of a longer stream of consciousness with a few distinct sections which I have been working to break up into movements.   Here is the 1st - enjoy!!

You can find the 2nd movement here:  https://soundcloud.com/matham-wilsoned/of-whats-to-come-xii-2nd-movement

"Of What's to Come" is a project where I use the piano to explore the future - what lies ahead - instead of the present or past. Unlike "Words Fail Me", in which each track captures some part of my life that has already been written, each track of "Of What's to Come" is a daydream, fantasy or story about a part of my life that still* lies ahead.

My piano is my voice.  I started recording these compositions and improvisations a few years ago when I wanted to tell someone how much I love them and no words were sufficient.  In the process of writing and recording that piece, I decided to start recording my random improvisations as well (which despite having played most of my life, I've never done before).  That was the beginning of my first set, "Words Fail Me" and this page.

Words Fail Me is available on Amazon, iTunes and Google Play!  It is also available for streaming on Spotify! 

Thanks to everyone who has listened, liked, reposted, commented - the fact that so many complete strangers have taken time out of their lives to experience a little of mine is crazy.  

I also love to accompany vocalists and work with other musicians:

Or take a minute to listen to the amazing voice of https://soundcloud.com/keir-patrick-white whom I had the privilege of working with for many years.
