In celebration of the first ever piano day, here's a little binaural recording of something new I've been working on! 

It was recorded on the beautiful piano at One Good Lied a Day, London.

“Why does the world need a Piano Day? For many reasons. But mostly, because it doesn’t hurt to celebrate the piano and everything around it: performers, composers, piano builders, tuners, movers and most important, the listener.” – Nils Frahm

Nils Frahm - Some

A piece I wrote and recorded for Piano Day. Enjoy.(:

This track is a special release for the first annual "Piano Day" (a new holiday invented by Nils Frahm). It incorporates sounds from my old Yamaha upright piano in a few different ways: First I played it (of course), then I sampled the piano and manipulated those samples to create some of the ambient effects you hear. Hopefully this helps you to hear the piano in new ways (as it did for me).

"Ellipsis" is based on the idea of waiting for something even though you don't know exactly what you're waiting for. Most of the elements for this piece were recorded during a trip to Kitimat in Northern BC. In many ways, Kitimat is a town in waiting – waiting for the city workers strike to end; waiting to see if new industries will come to the region or not; waiting for spring to finally arrive in full. This piece is my attempt to capture that feeling of collective waiting and anticipation.

The second is the duration of 9 192 631 770 periods of the radiation corresponding to the transition between the two hyperfine levels of the ground state of the cesium 133 atom.  But is it always so instant?  How long is one second? I composed this small piano piece to reflect challenges of understanding time we all experience once in a while.  

This music was also used in the final part of the 8 minute long sountrack I produced for the audio-visual installation "CeļoJumts" showcased during the "Staro Rīga" multimedia festival in the Art Museum "Rīgas Birža".
