Title: "Trying To Keep You"

I could tell my babe
by the look that was in your eyes
the cold distant heart
that kind of vibe

ooooh oooh

We’ll cherish those days
and those nights
girl, It’s OK
I’ll be alright

I want you to be happy
in your heart

ooooh I need you

ooooh I need you

I just cant take another dayyyy….wihtout you

The bird has flown away today

I will always hold dear
to my heart
your beauty, your soul
your inner light

Like a shooting star
in the night
all I need to know girl is why?

you say you need to find out who you are…
well let me tell you…
you’re the soulmate of my dreams

I love you
look at me!
How could you do this to me
I love you
my girl

Trying to Keep You (Piano Day 2024)

Painting by Marlene
Composition Inspired by quite moments in deep thought (solitude)and feeling the heart beat whilst imagining the big orchestral chords and sounds.

The Heartbeats  In Solitude

"IMAGE is an introspective, atmospheric, and minimalist piano composition where nuances are explored with sensitivity and depth through neo-classical harmonies."

Gluck-Sgambati:  Melodie in D minor. Orfeo ed Euridike. Sergei Rachmannoff 1925 On Ampico 64921

This is the 6th track and sentimental piano solo song included in '24 Piano Sketches' that is a new solo album from Yuki Murata, the Tokyo-based pianist/composer and member of the cinematic instrumental music band, Anoice, and its side projects, RiLF and Films, who fascinates music fans in the world by her lovely melodies and piano sounds.

As the name suggests, '24 Piano Sketches' includes 24 piano songs which Yuki Murata plays improvisations on her own grand and upright pianos. This long project is going to add 2 songs every month and ultimately 24 songs in one year, allowing the listeners to feel the changing of the season in real-time via the beautiful, warm, and sometimes melancholic piano sounds.

This time, she purposely selected a cassette tape recorder, a MiniDisc player, and an early generation of iPhone as the recording equipments for each song, unlike studio albums from her own bands such as Anoice. These retro and simplistic recording devices were able to capture not only a creaking noise coming from the piano and the environmental sounds outside the window, but also a noise occurred by cheap microphones, which make this album so impressive. Its nostalgic soundscape may remind her listeners of her first solo album 'Films' and second solo album 'Home'.

You should feel the changing of the seasons with the beautiful piano melodies.

I recorded the album in the closet of a rented room in La Puente, CA as a gift for family and friends. Soon after it topped the Holiday charts on Airplay Direct in Nashville several times as the #1 download to radio stations around the world. I hope you enjoy my playing, which always comes from my heart to yours.

I tell my stories through my own composed (and improvised) instrumental guitar music, using a combination of acoustic guitars, sometimes supported by orchestral instruments. Some have described my music as meditative, relaxing, and introspective, with a touch of melancholia and a distinctly Spanish flair.
