LIVELY UP YOUR DUB

Garyu Tensay was the artist name of Swami Sadhu Ananda (birth name Jun Takayama), a Japanese artist who lived in London and to who I used to travel regularly to make music and enjoy each other's company. Sadly he is no longer with us, but his music and art will live on.

A Koto Dream

From Nature To City

The Drunken Gambler

I came across some vocal samples that haunted me until I wrote an arrangement for them!

Original text by Sir T.H. and Lady Parry Williams.

Arrangement, scoring, playing and mixing by yours truly.

Beth Yw'r Haf I Mi

A sketch of a current work in progress. I am finding myself going back to my classical roots more frequently of late ...

Funeral Piece #1

Falling Leaves [EDIT]

My only example of a somnambulistic composition, made in September 1991.

Piano solo, done in one take, an improvisation in my sleep.

Aan De Niers

I wrote this when I was 15, but never really got to hear the thing as a whole till I got my first MIDI studio 14 years later. Sounds a bit rough as it is off a cassette (circa 1991). I should get around to rebooting it one of these days.

If It Ain't Baroque, Dont Fix It

Very short piece that came to me while looking at virgin snow on winter's morning.

Fresh Snow On A Bright Winters Morning

I heard this day that an old friend suffered a tragic, needless death a while ago.

The news caught me at an emotional moment and I felt compelled write something, and here it is.

While is is very rough and put together in an hour, I dedicate it to Paul and may his soul rest in Peace.

For Paul Broadbent RIP

Greetings to one and all! I am a composer, arranger and performer of music.

I started teaching myself to play piano at the age of 12, and began composing 3 months after that. I am now 52 years of age.
