A Berlin Waltz 

Capturing the charm, never ending change, roughness, and unforgettable smirk of my hometown Berlin. Listening to this melancholic and sometimes dissonant piano piece you can feel the contrasts and quirkiness of this unique city.
This neoclassical song is an homage to all of Berlin’s wonders and foibles.
A music video will be released with the song taking you on a little walk through the ugly pretty city. 
This is the first single from the upcoming EP 'River Soul (Songs For Piano, Wind & Water) This project was funded by GVL & Neustarthilfe Kultur.

Valeska and the River - A Berlin Waltz

Your Echo by CrusaderBeach is a mellow, reflective solo piano piece that explores themes of memory and the lingering impact of someone significant. It evokes a nostalgic sense of longing and unresolved emotions.

The track features the gentle, intimate tones of a slightly-felted vintage piano.

CrusaderBeach is the pseudonym of composer Adrian Webster - a self-taught pianist from the North West of England whose neoclassical solo piano pieces blend captivating melodies with emotive moods. Discover more at: https://crusaderbeach.com/

It's a journey, it's a ride! Life is wild and weird, loud and quiet and all the adjectives you could possibly think of. So let it ... let the river run and see where it takes you. Here's my new neoclassical piano piece.
"Let The River Run" mirrors the ever-changing flow of life. Like a river, it moves through moments of serenity and turbulence—sometimes gentle and reflective, sometimes rushing with intensity. Each note carries the ebb and flow of emotion, inviting the listener to surrender to the journey, wherever the current may lead.

Let The River Run - Valeska and the River

The second album from Susy Wall - a cohesive collection that celebrates the creativity in the Black Country, seen through the eyes of the artists, poets, people and landscapes of an often oevrlooked region.

This is the first single off my upcoming album, Black Lights which was funded by Arts Council England.It’s a collection of songs that intend to shine a light on creativity in the Black Country which is an often overlooked region of the West Midlands. 
Between 1873 and 1933 more than 5,000
immigrant children from the Children’s
Emigration Homes of Birmingham were sent to live in rural Canada.
One of those children was Black Country
poet Liz Berry’s great aunt - Eliza
Showell. In 1908, aged twelve and newly
orphaned, Eliza was sent from a
Birmingham children’s home to work in
indentured service in rural Nova Scotia.
She never returned to England or saw her brothers again.This a song for her and all those that find themselves away from home.
