This is a first of a series of improvisational works that I’ll be uploading to Soundcloud. 
My goal as a composer is to create musical works that fluctuates between order and chaos. I have yet to accomplish this balance in my work. 
To push my boundaries as a composer, I developed a daily piano practice that involves focused improvisation. Each improvisation starts with a simple rhythmic and harmonic pattern. As the pattern progresses, I change the structure and harmony gradually with focus and intuition. The aim is to play the piano in unconventional ways to break through my own barriers and fears as a performer. 
I decided to name these works “impressions” as they are like musical imprints conceived in the moment without a predetermined concept or idea. To make these impressions even more obscure, I decided to pick a tarot card to represent each piece.
With this specific improvisation I started with a soothing pattern with heavy reverb and pedal work. The harmony and overtones created by the reverb were leading my way through chord and harmony changes. The tarot card I picked by random was the king of cups.

With this specific improvisation I played mostly on the black notes and used minimal sustain pedal. The tarot card I picked by random was the the hanged man.

When I did this improvisation I was feeling quite emotional. I felt the need to move in and out of melody and tonality which created the dissonance and intensity I needed at that moment. The Tarot card I picked by random was the three of cups.

Impression #3

With this improvisation, I had a rhythmic pattern in mind and I wanted to start in a minor key. The idea was to keep the rhythmic pattern throughout the improvisation but to move to a different key signature and play around with the tempo. The tarot card I picked was the high priestess.

Reconciliation in b minor

Mira is an artist-musician. Through a combination of visual and music compositions, Mira explores the binary correspondence between opposites in nature as well as the twofold nature of human beings. The core intention is to provide an immersive space open to exploration and a deepening into the unknown depths of our unconscious. This involves a journey astray into the obscure depths of our self, and a search in the widest possible circle away from our self.
