on commence avec Bach sur clavecin et flute, on passe a la viol de Jordi Savall qui interprete Purcell, pour ensuite prendre le train, ou plusieurs trains dans differentes dimensions du temps et de l'espace avec Steve Reich, on decolle vers l'espace avec Philip Glass pour atterir a Radio Beirut avec Erik Truffaz, Sig, et Fouad Afra ❤ pour une envolee lyrique qui continue a vibrer jusqu'aujourd'hui dans le coeur et dans l'ame ❤

First, a confession.
I don’t play Etude No.1 as fast as Mr. Glass indicated in his score. The honest truth? It’s a little too fast for me—and for Mme Bechstein, as I call my piano. But perhaps that’s part of the charm of this version: it’s a bit slower, more grounded. And in that space, something opens up. The dynamic expression has room to breathe. The tempo becomes a gently rising tide, like waking up slowly, aligning fingers, mind, and breath into harmony.

Admittedly, this is a rather personal interpretation. I’m not entirely sure Mr. Glass would give it his blessing. But then again, it is an etude—and I find this piece simply wonderful.

Over the past weeks, it has become something of a quiet companion in the early hours of the day. I’ve worked from the published score, gradually sketching my own notation to help understand how the sections interlock, how the pulse shifts and evolves. This slow discovery revealed a surprising depth—a kind of secret logic running beneath the surface.

There’s something endlessly captivating about Glass’s harmonic language. It’s modern, never cloying, and crafted with quiet intelligence. His use of subtle shifts—almost imperceptible at first—creates patterns that, through repetition, become almost meditative.

This recording isn’t about perfection or polish and not meant to compete with the many beautiful renditions already out there, performed on the most luxurious grand pianos. It’s my personal take—played honestly, on my own instrument, at my own pace. A moment captured in sound, without the pressure to impress.

If you’re a pianist—especially one still finding their way, as I am—I warmly encourage you to spend time with this piece. It has a way of revealing itself slowly, like light unfolding across a morning room. And perhaps, in its simplicity, you’ll find something of yourself reflected there.

I’d love to hear how this piece resonates with you. Leave a comment if you’d like to share your thoughts or your own experience with Glass’s music.

Yours truly,
Sebastian Morawietz

This February 2026, Akhnaten returns to the Dorothy Chandler Pavilion for the first time in a decade. In this special episode, we rewind to a 2017 conversation between Akhnaten's composer, Philip Glass, and LA Opera’s then-artist-in-residence, Matthew Aucoin. Together, they explore the radical reign of the pharaoh Akhnaten, the revolutionary vision that reshaped ancient Egypt, and the hypnotic score that continues to captivate audiences around the world.

Prelude in Cm Bitter Sweet

This is the Final version of this instrumental.  It's gone through a few strip downs, vocal arrangements, and twists over the years.  I took out the extra percussion and some extra "noise."

Patterns (final version)

Kevin Ford is a Fantastic Four superfan who had never seen any of the theatrically released F4 Movies… until now! Each week Matt Waters guides him through uncharted territory as they rate the movies and try to build an all-star cast.


With 'First Steps' releasing this week we figured it only made sense to dive into one of the most infamous superhero films ever released. SEO, baby! From the director's on-set behaviour to rushed reshoots to ill-advised sources of inspiration there's surely nothing positive to say about this film.... right?!?

All my life I have been deeply disgusted with flies - bordering on a phobia. I guess this repetitive track stems from this.

As equally comfortable composing for film and video games as writing hard-hitting vocal and guitar tracks, Tatiana is a self-taught juggernaut of creativity.
Boasting intricate arrangements that bring to mind Pet Sounds-era Brian Wilson, she’s something of a chameleon, changing from track to track; offering different versions of herself to the listener.

Dive into the swirling pool of her music. You may get dirty, but that’s okay. You’ll emerge inspired nonetheless, and perhaps even a little spooked.

How many musicians can you say that about?

Mike Thomas, Matt Waters, Ben Phillips, Kevin Ford, Jerome Cusson and more bring you shows covering a plethora of films and TV shows, including Lost, Adventure Time, Game of Thrones, Firefly and even superhero movies, because nobody else is talking about those! Where else could you hope to find a 90-minute critical discussion of Brokeback Mountain and a dump truck of trivia on Mission: Impossible II in the same feed?

I am a freelance sound operator working in television. I play a bit of piano and write the occasional bit of music. A classically trained piano player I fell in love with the rock music of the 1970s. Particular favourites are ELP, Focus and Pink Floyd. I am currently working on a tribute to Keith Emerson called "Rondo Requiem".

Victoria, my first album is my musical love letter to London. It is an album based on the London Underground - each song being inspired by each station on the Victoria Line.

YUM in the park (Bye a Squirrel)

There he is, that new old man
Wrinkle face, walking can
He just sees me, ‘neath my tree
I smile, agent
Will you believe me?

New cashew just dropped 💯
YUM
In the park 
YUM 
In the park
I’m a refuge, he’s a regular
Now we’re surrounded, where’s my editor

And the real livers fime
Planning the food, its grabbing time

Grabs and grabes and grabers fime
Once you get yours, may I get mine?

Then go to the top of the tree

I’ll fight you for it
When killt for a cashew
If you don’t share, I’ll scratch your stature
But enough gets every,
So thanks old man,
So this was just your new old plan?

So please, let me get this straight… so you thought:
YUM
In the park
YUM
In the park
All along?

One step ahead, me, I’m late, we all move, no one said
Damn, thanks old mamn
