This is perhaps my favourite track. This one makes me feel like I am not yet awake and still lingering in a dream about a life (my life?) I never lived. It has some nostalgic quality to it and sounds dreamy. I would like to make a video for this one. So maybe someday this one can be heard ánd seen. To me it has a beautiful sadness and it resonates with my inner self. It also makes me feel restless and I want to wake up. At the very end you can hear my wife (actual recording of my wife's voice) saying "Wake up".

Hypnopompia (Wake Up)

The Man Who Sold The World (Mandoline Cover)

Inspired by Jean-Michel Jarre "Waiting For Cousteau".

Morinia ft. [geofry smart punk for electric guitars]

p.2#8 : la navigation négative.

1-2 Perdre de vue systématiquement chaque repère.
3-4 Se maintenir sur le blanc des cartes.
5-6 N’être rassuré que lorsqu’on atteint l’inconnu.

For the beauty of the earth
For the beauty of the skies
For the love which from our birth
Over and around us lies
Over and around us lies
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn of praise

For the beauty of each hour
Of the day and of the night
Hill and vale, and tree and flower
Sun and moon, and stars of light
Sun and moon, and stars of light
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our hymn of grateful praise

For the joy of human love
Brother, sister, parent, child
Friends on earth and friends above
For all gentle thoughts and mild
For all gentle thoughts and mild
Lord of all, to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn of praise

For each perfect gift of thine
To our race so freely given
Graces human and divine
Flow'rs of earth and buds of heav'n
Flow'rs of earth and buds of heav'n
Lord of all to thee we raise
This our joyful hymn of praise
This our joyful hymn of praise

For the Beauty of the Earth

In Search of Lost Time - Piano Improvisation

pianoimprovictor@gmail.com
Victor Birkan resides in Beer Sheva, Israel. In his youth, he obtained a classical musical education in St. Peterburg, Russia. Even then, he showed an interest in piano improvisation, although his teachers did not encourage it too much. Then came a long break… Victor tried different professions – biologist, computer IT. His passion for music did not interrupted, but he only started playing regularly again around 2016, and in 2018 began posting his compositions.
After receiving positive feedbacks on social media, he focused on improvised music. He is deeply convinced that improvisation is not a privilege of jazz, it is the classical piano that finds its way to people's hearts. Victor Birkan never prepares for his recordings. Sitting down at the piano, he has no idea where to start, what will be in the middle and how he will finish. The melody will come from somewhere... He seeks to capture pure emotion and splash it onto the keyboard. Practically does not use computer effects. His listeners often write about the "magic", bewitching influence of his compositions.
Over the past year, Victor’s composition, “Between Night and Day”, has been nominated for Best Solo Piano Single by the ONE WORLD MUSIC RADIO, and some interesting compositions have been created in collaboration with Yellow Roze Records label. Victor is constantly striving to expand his audience.
