Up-tempo, arpeggiating solo piano, with a strong feel of anticipation. Moody and stunning.

This project came out of a creative communication assignment for my current MSc in climate science. It was inspired by "Unci Maka", which is a Lakota word meaning Grandmother Earth, the literal translation is "very ancient me". Many indigenous languages don't recognise a separation between us and nature as the English language does. Maybe this can point us to our role as nature, and deepen our connection, using our hands and hearts to heal together.

One of my great loves is listening to film and theatre soundtracks. Often the shortest tracks on an album inspire me more than the main theme. When I growing up and listening to my record collection there might just be a riff or intro or an ending that I’d play over and over. That process became so much easier with today’s modern software. It would be interesting to hear about your own experiences. Maybe you have a favourite intro, ending, riff or hook to share.

Over (Orchestral Version)

Reminiscence – The Gentle Return
Sometimes the heaviest moments are the quiet ones.
When a single piano speaks louder than any voice,
not with words, but with the aching stillness left behind.

Reminiscence is the sound of looking back,
of revisiting the empty chair, the quiet room,
the laughter that once filled it – now just an echo.
It’s not a cry for comfort, but a slow exhale of memory.

This piece doesn’t try to escape the sorrow.
It walks beside it – unafraid, tender, honest.
Because some things cannot be forgotten.
They live on in sound, in silence, in the spaces between the notes.

Performed entirely on the Bechstein  –
a grand piano from EastWest, known for its haunting intimacy.
Its velvety resonance and delicate detail bring life to the sadness,
like a whispered goodbye that lingers in the air.
Every nuance was shaped by human hands – with reverence, with grief.

Part of the album Tides of Melancholy.
No AI. No shortcuts. Just soul, sorrow, and sincerity.

Composed, played, and felt by myself –
for all those who carry someone in their heart but can no longer hold them.
Thank you for listening – and for making space for this gentle return.


Reminiscence – Die leise Rückkehr
Manchmal sind es die stillsten Augenblicke, die am schwersten wiegen.
Wenn ein einziges Piano lauter spricht als jede Stimme –
nicht mit Worten, sondern mit dem Schmerz,
den nur die Abwesenheit kennt.

Reminiscence ist ein Blick zurück.
Zu dem leeren Stuhl. Dem stillen Raum.
Dem Lachen, das einmal darin lebte –
nun nur noch Erinnerung, verhallt im Nichts.
Dieses Stück sucht keinen Trost.
Es atmet die Trauer – langsam, behutsam, aufrichtig.

Denn manche Verluste verblassen nicht.
Sie bleiben – in einem Klang, in der Stille,
in dem, was zwischen den Tönen unausgesprochen bleibt.

Eingespielt auf dem Bechstein Sus Rep Lite DYN –
ein Konzertflügel aus der EastWest-Piano-Serie,
geschätzt für seine emotionale Tiefe und intime Klangcharakteristik.
Sein samtiger Ton und seine fragile Präsenz
verleihen dem Schmerz eine Stimme,
wie ein leiser Abschied, der in der Luft stehen bleibt.
Jede Note wurde mit Sorgfalt und Gefühl geformt – von echten Händen.

Teil des Albums Tides of Melancholy.
Keine KI. Kein Trick. Nur Seele. Nur Trauer. Nur Wahrheit.

Komponiert, gespielt und empfunden von mir –
für all jene, die jemanden im Herzen tragen, den sie nicht mehr in den Armen halten können.
Danke fürs Zuhören – und dafür, dieser leisen Rückkehr einen Platz zu geben.

Reminiscence

“Never underestimate the power you have to take your life in a new direction.” ― Germany Kent

A little piano improvisation dedicated to family, friends, and others who have had to start again and have shown great faith, courage and resolve in doing   so. A companion piece to "Crossroads."

Starting Again

Like the hush before morning, or the weight of a dream you can’t quite hold.
“Barely Awake” drifts slowly through stillness — a soft breath of memory, wrapped in quiet light.
Let it carry you where words no longer reach.

Barely Awake

Welcome to the second track in the Three Colours Blue Trilogy. I hope you enjoy it.

Blue Trilogy

Blue No. 02 (Trilogy)

This is my soundtrack for the short film "Hagstone" by the skilled and passionate filmmaker Jamie Hawkins (Side Owl Productions):

As always this is supposed to blend with the images, sounds and dialog. Hence the best experience will be to watch the film as a whole.

For all the composers and sound nerds out there: You might want to have a look at my YouTube shorts where I show a lot of "behind the scenes" material, especially the recorded instruments:
