Dust And Light

I recently recorded the Ensign Symphonic Chorus at the prestigious Bastyr Cathedral/Chapel in Seattle.  The acoustics are so astounding I just wanted to share a clip of the choir for my original song "Alleluia" which will be featured in my upcoming 2015 Christmas Album "Winter Symphony".  This is JUST the choir track with no additional reverb added, no mastering, just straight from the mics.

Get Up, Get On

The title track on Jennifer's new album, Winter Symphony.  This is an original composition written by Jennifer, inspired by "Winter" from Vivaldi's Four Seasons. You will also hear a little bit of "Carol of the Bells" in this track, all combined with her signature epic orchestral sound.  

Winter Symphony recently won "Album of the year 2015" in music critic Michael Debbages's "Top 20 of 2015". The album has also stayed consistently in the top 20 on Amazon's Hot New Releases charts for 6 weeks in a row since releasing Nov 20th, 2015.  The album also reached the #6 position on iTunes Best Selling Christmas Albums.

Orchestration beautifully executed by the amazing Glen Gabriel.

“It is only when we become aware or are reminded that our time is limited that we can channel our energy into truly living” - Ludovico Einaudi

In A Time Lapse is the representation of the bringing together all of life’s experience and emotions into a single moment of time. Recorded in a remote monastery near Verona and written over a period of 2 years it is as Epic and emotional as Divenire and as experimental and adventurous as Nightbook

Michele McLaughlin - Melancholy Snowfall

Michele McLaughlin is a Contemporary Solo Pianist & Composer. She has released twenty-three albums, many of which have received multiple nominations and awards.  She has been featured in Rolling Stone Magazine, has nearly 2 Billion Spins on streaming platforms, and is a multi Billboard Charting pianist.  Her original solo piano compositions are often described as "musical storytelling" and are haunting and contagious, relaxing and beautiful, peaceful and touching, energetic and inspiring. Her music is a regular favorite on Pandora Radio and is a bestseller on iTunes and Amazon, often landing her in the Top Ten New Age Charts. You can listen to Michele online via Whisperings Solo Piano Radio, Pandora Radio, iTunes Radio, Spotify, XM/Sirius and Music Choice Soundscapes.
 
"McLaughlin is what I refer to as a "heart on her sleeve" composer, i.e. there is no subterfuge, no subtlety at work in her music - she presents her emotional intent of a song forthwith and front and center. It's a testament to her considerable talent that this baring of her soul always works so well, because in the hands of a lesser talent, the music would be melodramatic, overly self-conscious, and would grow tiresome. However, it's not just her technique and artistry, which is impossible to ignore, but also her artist's soul, which seems woven into every piece of music she writes.  No matter how pyrotechnic she can be (and this woman can really play piano with the best of 'em), there is always the presence of heart, sometimes "in your face" and sometimes between the lines, but never hidden behind artifice."
