Yuh got one who likes it right here...again the dissonant touches and the hesitations all add up to serious emotional power...love it...faved reposted downloaded

Goodnight Sir, listening, whether you think it is crappy or not!

Very deep piece Stein, thoroughly enjoyed it; I was expecting it to end darkly and mystically.

You have a peculiar idea of "crappy", it reminds me of a pearl of wisdom in a famous song... "dai diamanti non nasce niente, dal letame nascono i fior" ;)

Now officially released as singel track! And here's the Bandcamp link again:
http://fredrikpark.bandcamp.com/track/nocturne-no-1-the-longing-and-the-wonders-ambient-piano-version
also available at Amazon & iTunes etc.)

The solo piano version of this composition reached 100+ favs in just a few Weeks, Major exposure of that one, thanks to "the Piano Cloud". It's also some indication of the emotional, musical & mixing qualities I provide in my music & music production.
I will include the Solo Piano version on my first album, along with other original compositions of mine.


ABOUT THIS VERSION:
This is the synth pads combo version of my first ever accomplished combo of finished composition & HQ audio quality of recorded solo piano actually. 
It's also the first composition I'm using Soundiron's "Emotional Piano" on.

Full title would be "Nocturne #1" - The Longing and the Wonders, 
potentiallly with B flat minor as key reference.
It changes keys/scales, but B flat minor is the most used key for main motif.

Most of the notes are recorded live, using my MIDI keyboard, but there are lots of post-editing, both for the composition and for the note tweaks. Velocity, timing and additional notes.

Appologies to all who prefer untampered live performances. 
Originally recorded using East West Quantum Leap - Pianos Gold (Bechstein grand), but I decided to use "Emotional Piano" piano software library from Soundiron by now.

I had to adjust a lot to make it sound the way it was intended, also for the different sample sets with the new software library.
But it was much easier to shape the dynamic phrases to sound natural, compared to EWQL Pianos anyway, IMO. So it was well worth the additional hassle.

I still use the EWQL Bechstein grand in my Charity for the Philippines project.
The Bechstein is still one of my very favourite grands.

The later part for this composition was based on a live improvisation I did, while the first sections were composed through painstaking trial and error, based on hand positionings, chord progressions & melodic flow through the key changes.


A good deal of the arpeggio techniques is inspired by Rachmaninov, my favourite piano composer (due to the deep adoration I have for the musical and emotional qualities, much more than the famous technical aspects of his)

Other inspirations for this composition were the feeling of a strong connection with nature; 
and (hopefully, eek) -an even stronger connection with my beloved wife.

The repeated main motif, with it's chord progression and melody combo was something I came up years ago.
Musically speaking, I aimed for something that would sound very emotionally connecting, yet not so similar to anything I've heard before. So that was a big challenge and a lot of hard work for it back then, trying to achieve both aims at the same time.

This track version might have a few addtions, but might be a final mix by now.

In case you still prefer live performances, and/or if you're curious of the older version (or my technical performance skills & limitations at the time), here's a link to my old original unedited live recording (not the final composition version):

I also aim for this composition to be included in a high quality visual media project too.
Thank you so much for your interest in my music!

Sentimental Moment

sometimes i happen to create a track of artificial feeling like this...
i happy if you like it..

Love Sense

The Doodle series is still going strong! Here's a quick improv I did the other day....yes some imperfections, but us as humans are all like that...so I'll keep this piece honest and imperfect. Cheers!

Doodle #6: Pierce

In between writing my first album I felt it necessary to carry on writing outside of that genre. Also I haven't put up a fresh piano piece for a while. Hope you like it, please like/share/comment.

Touch

A song composed high in the mountains of Utah by Bestor as he viewed the wind blowing through boughs of an ancient pine tree and wondering what the secrets this tree could tell.

Secret Of The Pines

It's always a pleasure and an honor to add to David's beautiful guitar compositions. This is (for me) a somewhat melancholy glance back at summer and a looking forward to what is to come: the crackle of a woodfire and the different ways the sunlight plays on the floors during the autumn season. I love the changing of the seasons and I thank my Creator for this pleasure.
