Time To Say Goodbye - Summer Swee - Singh Piano Arrangement

"JFN" is an original song (track 3) off of Summer Swee-Singh & the Crazy 88, composed and performed by Summer Swee-Singh. "JFN" was recorded on a Ravenscroft 220 grand piano in Carefree, AZ in April 2016. Copyright Summer Swee-Singh 2016. Available for purchase/streaming digitally on iTunes, Amazon, iHeartRadio, Spotify, Tidal, YouTube, etc. Signed CDs at http://www.summersweesingh.com/store      #SSS88
"JFN" reviews: 
1. "This [piece] comes from a pianist—'professional ivory tickler' she calls herself (chuckle) on her page—Summer Swee-Singh... I was so taken by the production of this piece that I wanted to fit it in tonight and introduce [all of you to her]. This piece is called 'JFN' and this is from the album Summer Swee-Singh & the Crazy 88, so find her on Facebook and on the web. Enjoy this track."
["JFN" plays]
"That was 'JFN' by Summer Swee-Singh and that’s off of her debut album—I was reading on her website; it was actually just released this June. So that's available on iTunes and wherever music is sold, as well as physical copies. She has quite an extensive biography. She’s based out on the West Coast in the Los Angeles area. You can find her on YouTube…over 1.9 million total views and has been reposted by numerous other big names in the industry. She’s a real cross-section of styles and genres, but wow, that was just a stunning, classical piano arrangement—an original song... Definitely check out more of her music and we’ll be looking forward to featuring her more on the program in the weeks to come."
-Jonathan Estabrooks: Host of CRI's Classical Crossover LIVE (radio program) and Professional Singer

2. "In “JFN,” a striking array of disparate styles is deftly interwoven to effect an uncanny synthesis. Schumann’s “In der Nacht” from Fantasiestücke, the slow movement from Beethoven’s “Pathétique” sonata, Howard Shore’s film scores, Claude-Michel Schönberg’s plaintive music-theater songs, Chick Corea’s piano improvisations, Chopin’s Nocturnes—channeling these (and other) idioms, Summer produces ardent and authentic musical speech which transcends and anneals her sources. On the one hand, one’s head spins as one subconsciously tracks the colorful interplay among these manifold elements; on the other hand, one savors the spacious and poignant narrative into which these antecedents have been silkily subsumed.
We begin, for example, with a gently descending scalar cascade that could serve as a plausible introduction to either a Chopin prelude or a 1940s torch song. This leisurely major-scale descent lands surprisingly, though, on a dark minor chord; a Chopinesque thickly-textured swirl immediately ensues, one which gradually yields to the first melody of the composition. This tune, in turn, is a close (if inadvertent) simulation of the primary gesture in Schumann’s “In der Nacht”; it is a meditation reminiscent of Chick Corea’s “Piano Improvisations”; it is a beseeching lament that would be quite at home in The Lord of the Rings film series; it is all of these, and none of them. “JFN” scrolls forward, tracing further its synthetic course, momentarily thinning to transparent classical counterpoint, shifting harmonic gears while adapting nineteenth-century piano textures, the entire process governed by an abiding rubato—sifting through, hovering above, and occasionally running headlong through these varied materials.
As this music hovers and sifts and ponders and whirls, it is impossible not to savor the sumptuous sound of the Ravenscroft 220 grand piano used on this recording. Recording engineer Robby Moore has done an excellent job in capturing the warmth and clarity of this fine instrument; the sound is both intimate and voluminous."

Willow Tree - GRP

#ThriceRemix
GRP Remix of Thrice's Blood on Blood
--
We found out about this contest just a few days ago, so this is the best we could throw together in 48 hours. The only stem we used was Dustin's vocal stem. I wrote / recorded a stripped down, quasi-jazzy-yet-somehow-almost-classical-crossover piano reharm to his vocal track and Jessica wrote / recorded some new epic drums to the vocals and my piano. After Jessica sent me her drums, during the next 12 hours (which included a solid nap), I recorded a tiny bit of flute and scoured Splice, which allowed me to sprinkle in few ocean and orchestral fx for good measure since I didn't have time to hire session musicians to play on this.
>>If you can hear the 6 seconds of flute I play on this and comment at that timestamp saying "GET A GRP", you get 1000000000 GRP points*.
(*GRP points have no monetary value currently, lol).
Oh, and apologies, I didn't have time to get this mixed/mastered by a pro since this was all done last minute, so I mixed it myself and ya gotta just deal. Meh? :)
So if you dig it, please "like" it and/or follow us on the gram (link below).

At Dusk

My live performance (or rather about 2/3rds of my performance as this recording is about 1hr 56min and I played a 3hr set) at Double Barrel Wine Bar on Wednesday, June 19th 2013.
That's right! I start out with some Chopin and transition into Nirvana, Linkin Park, Green Day, Aerosmith, and Muse... and so on and so forth :]

All arranged by ear and performed by memory by Summer Swee-Singh (piano).

*my apologies for any mistakes :) my excuse is that I had a massive headache during my entire set; hope you still enjoy and can recognize at least a handful of songs (some artists I covered in my medley are listed in the tags, but that is certainly not a complete listing [ Metallica, Thrice, Sufjan Stevens, Ratatat, Daft Punk, Justice, Ratatat, Metric, Kid Cudi, Pink Floyd, Skrillex, Avicii, The Black Keys, etc. etc. etc.])!*
