Description: Each "Inspiration" by J. A. J. Sedarski is a short, simple piece that explores a given topic, medium, event, or personal experience.

Waltz No. 3 fuses together two beloved forms of Chopin: waltzes and nocturnes. For solo piano, the piece highlights the deeply romantic feelings associated with the waltz together with the uplifting melodies of the nocturnes. The piece ends in both of these aesthetics combined for a triumphant finale.

Program Note:
It is with immense joy that I present to you my new work entitled Promesa. First and foremost, this piece is about unconditional, undying love that promises your beloved the world. Inspired by my Mexican heritage, Promesa takes it’s main melody and poetry from a work entitled Valz Esther - a piece composed by my great grandfather Luis Rice. A work never heard before in concert, it’s a piece written for his wife expressing his limitless love. My work explores floating spaces and open instrumentation which accumulates to a climax of voices moving and working together. For me, this piece is the preservation of music composed almost half a century ago, an homage to my great grandfather and my grandfather, and is an immense reminder that true love is possible. I’d like to dedicate this performance to my grandfather Humberto Rice who passed away from Covid earlier this year. Te quiero abuelito.
