Blue Monday Live: Blue Skies

An original piece by me (Quin) called "When You're Not Looking". I thought this rendition of it turned out rather well! 私が作ったオリジナル曲です。「君が見ない時に」って言う曲です。今回楽しかったね。

Blue Monday Live: When You're Not Looking

Written and performed... when? 1994? 1996? Something like that. My song, performed by the University of Texas Jazz Ensemble. It's not me on piano. Still kinda proud of it. 1995ぐらいに作曲して演奏しました。この録音はテキサスの大学のジャズバンドの演奏。この録音は、私はピアノじゃなくて聴衆でした。まだこの曲で鼻が高い。（でも本当は外国人なの鼻が高いね。。。）

Starlight Serenade Teaser

In a trip to Tokyo last March, completely by chance I happened upon a Bosendorfer showroom. I loved playing on their pianos so much, that I dragged my friend Huw (clarinet) back there with me the next day to jam with me on them. 

This track was just me fiddling around while Huw was on a bathroom break, and-- I guess I was inspired by the amazing 97-key Bosendorfer Imperial 290 I was playing -- it ended up being one of the best tracks I've ever recorded, at least when it comes to my solo piano skills. You can hear Huw wander in again towards the end of the track. He had no idea what he'd missed!

今年三月の東京に旅で、偶然にベーゼンドルファーの店を通り合わせました。そこのピアノを弾くのが大好きので、翌日クラリネットの仲良しヒューさんと一緒に戻って素敵なピアノでジャムセッションをしました。

この録音はヒューさんがトイレに行きながら僕がすごい９７キーのベーゼンドルファーのフラグシップのImperial Grandで一人で遊びました。何となく自分のソロピアノの録音となると最高になったかもしれないです。曲の最後の３０秒ぐらいにヒューさんが入る音を聴けます。彼はこんなエピックな演奏を聴き損ねることを知らなかったです！

Andes vs. Contrabass Clarinet. Guaranteed to lighten the heavy soul. If you have a soul, that is.
