Hey. It's interesting how sometimes small things in everyday life can influence us. Sometimes it's just the sight of a person, sometimes it's a small - nice - remark. The latter inspired me to create this improvisation. 
Yours truly, Sebastian

Ain't No Sunshine

"Ain't No Sunshine" - Bill Withers (Cello Cover)

A short story about the eternal, yet so unrecognized dance of internal and external change; all in the name of personal growth. Often we see realia around us as less of significance, phenomena to rule over, to practice our power on.
However, the soul is able to subordinate itself to guidance given by the aforementioned, thus getting closer to its rightful place in our world; among and not above others. This time an old, detuned piano taught me about Ashtanga (The eight-fold path of Yoga), each “limb” represents an imperfect attempt of the mind to rewire itself not to rule, but to listen and keep up with the quiet signs of a friend met along the way.

Hello World

Steve Gibbs - In Passing

Graham Reynolds loves to explore narrative in his work. This tendency makes him a natural fit for the film, theater and dance work that form one of the cores to his composing career. In fusing a loose concerto format with the story of Charles Babbage and his invention the difference engine, Reynolds' composing voice finds itself in a work that is intense and driving, beautiful and intimate, personally expressive and broadly accessible all at the same time. Developed over a course of years, the initial ideas for each movement were introduced and inspired separately before being woven into this one piece.

The musical onslaught of the opening movement came to Reynolds during a lecture by LB Deyo on Babbage and his work, inspired by the ferocious pace of both Babbage's thinking and the calculating speed of his invention. The fourth movement was developed in a very different form for the Rude Mechs play "The Method Gun", now touring the country. The fifth movement started as a solo piano piece, an Austin Museum of Art commission, in response to the work of Sol Lewitt. Reynolds joins other alt-classical voices in a 21st century approach that is no longer in rebellion against tonality and melody, nor desperate to prove their validity through focus on a "unique" extended technique, while folding 20th century ideas from clusters to modal harmonies to polyrhythms into a broad vocabulary.

The completed concerto "The Difference Engine" premiered on February 6th, 2010 with a 35-piece string orchestra in a Golden Hornet Project performance at Ballet Austin’s Austin Ventures Studio Theater. Soloists Leah Zeger on violin, Jonathan Dexter on cello, and the composer himself on piano fronted the debut, with parts written specifically for their skill set and personal voices. Those voices were then captured for this CD. Not fully realized in his lifetime, the difference engine was the masterwork of 19th century inventor and mathematician Charles Babbage, an attempt to create the world's first computer. A remix of each movement forms the album's second half with contributions from DJ Spooky, Octopus Project, Grammy-nominated producer Adrian Quesada of Grupo Fantasma, Golden Hornet Project's Peter Stopschinski, and finally one from the composer himself.

The Time To Run (Part 2)

The new album, composed having in mind the idea of releasing it mostly on vinyl, has two different "sides" - the "Solo" side, in which I am playing a delicate and intimate felted grand piano and the "romance" side, in which I composed music with strings, in a more cinematic style.
