Admirable, how carefully composed your improvisations sound at times. Very thoughtful and deep improvisation. I love it!

great sound and nostalgia... Sublime improvisation. technically just perfect.

Oh ! So beautiful....heart slowing down to the piano emotional beat to the dreams of old faded memories...please share with Short Piano Solo...

I'm loving the new version of Pianoteq. This Rachmaninov-esque improvisation is me losing myself in the delicious D4 concert grand piano. 

I’d love it if you would also follow me on Spotify at https://spoti.fi/2MRR1lV where you’ll soon be able to listen to my new album 'Nocturnal' (https://philbestmusic.com/nocturnal/) and all my others too.

Piano Improvisation no. 119

For Phil, traditional classical piano training was something of a straitjacket. He rebelled from a very young age by teaching himself to improvise and play by ear. Fundamentally gentle by nature - he’s a vegan and life-long meditator - the competitive world of classical piano seemed brutal. Phil plays music simply for the love of it and nothing else matters to him. He’s not interested in definitive interpretations or who-can-play-the-fastest performances: what Phil offers is real musical sense, through delivering rhythm and groove, melody and harmony with depth, clarity and unconventional intelligibility.

Phil plays in a refreshingly unpretentious and accessible way, telling musical stories with vivid, straightforward passion. Being a Yorkshireman, he says it how it is, and music for him is profound solace, catharsis and joy: so this is what he offers. Being extraordinarily fluent in the language of music on the keys, he loves to improvise freely, allowing the music to pour forth spontaneously, from a place of deep body-and-soul consciousness. And he aims to make the music of Mozart, Chopin, Rachmaninov, and every piece he plays, come from this place of real transformation and healing.
