Description: In collaboration with Francess Harris. She played the piano composition and I did the composition of the orchestral arrangement. Thank you for listening and enjoy. Any comment is appreciated always.

This is beautiful, as usual. Great collaboration!

I loved the note it ended on going from minor to major. Very uplifting mentally

During the time we worked together we decided to combine our joint work into an album. This album series is called "Soundscapes". All the tracks are reworked and improved.

The piano pieces can be found in the corresponding albums of the piano edition.

I hope our listeners like it. We look forward to your comments and hope you enjoy listening to our joint pieces.

Missing You | by Debra Buesking | a Piano & Cello Variation

Oh WOW! Over 2000 plays of this very personal track. To think I was hesitant to even post it... Thank you so much! ❤️

In our lives, we are granted the opportunity to witness the departure of our loved ones. Some depart through doors, never to return, yet still exist somewhere. Others leave suddenly, unexpectedly. Yet some depart when we are somewhat prepared, for their age predisposes them to it. However, there are also departures more challenging... when we observe the tree of the mind of a beloved, from which memories' leaves fall, and even the freshest, youngest cannot hold on to it. We cannot help, we can only watch how they fall...

Composing this little piece was very personal. It was combined with the realization of a fact from my immediate surroundings. I left all imperfections of my playing because of how I felt at that moment. It wasn't an improvisation, it was an interpretation of a theme that I've developed few minutes earlier.

They were traveling for almost 8 years after death of the Knight and his daughter...The old Wounded Healer and The Young Man.
Long years of fighting dark creatures and curing people from the cruel illness brought both of them deep under ground, almost to the center of the world.

There, as if far from the very last soul of the earth, was a giant garden.
It was a garden of white flowers and colossal trees with white leafs. It felt like this place was the frozen in time memory of the past somewhere very far from the world they both knew for the whole time. It was so beautiful...

For some reasons, The Young Man and The Wounded Healer both understood that it is the end. They finally found the source of the problem. All that was left is to find where it comes from.

They were breaking through every dark creature they see on their way. Every last one of them was weak against our heroes, driven by one and only purpose. They were unstoppable after all they've been through.

And far away, somewhere in the end of the Garden, there was a giant Heart, patiently waiting for someone to find it here, deep under ground, in the center of this world. To tell them the bitter truth, they both was afraid of to find out in the end...

Truth That Lies Ahead

This is my interpretation of a classical piece that I really like. It is not my own composition, but you can enjoy the dark and mysterious sound of Scriabin. I love how he puts so many things in so small space.

In collaboration with Francess Harris. She played the piano composition and I did the composition of the orchestral arrangement. Thank you for listening and enjoy. Any comment is appreciated always.

Life of Riley

The Rack

Bartholomew, a snail of considerable experience, found himself in a predicament. He was, to put it mildly, stuck. Not in the quicksand-and-heroic-rescue kind of stuck, but more the "I've been on this same patch of concrete wall for two days and the sun is really starting to make my shell feel like a microwave" kind of stuck. A lesser snail might despair, might give up the dream of ever reaching that succulent patch of moss just inches above his head.

But Bartholomew? He just adjusted his eyestalks, let out a tiny, almost imperceptible sigh, and thought, "Not my first rodeo." He'd faced stickier situations, literally. There was the time he got glued to a discarded lollipop stick for a week, or the unfortunate incident with the particularly viscous spilled soda. This concrete wall, while challenging, was just another Tuesday. He slowly, deliberately, began to secrete more slime, inching forward with the resolve of a seasoned pro. He knew, with the quiet confidence of one who had seen it all, that eventually, he would conquer this wall. He always did.

Not my first rodeo

Welcome to my SoundCloud page.  It serves as a jar of sorts, to catch the musical ideas flying around in my head!  My hope is that you find something to listen to that offers encouragement and refreshes your soul.

All music is original with a few exceptions (such as new arrangements of old Christmas songs, etc.).  All music has been composed and performed with absolutely no AI-assistance.  I primarily perform and record on the Yamaha MODX8, with an occasional recording on my older Yamaha Clavinova.  You will also find collaborative works on my page, featuring some other amazing musicians on SoundCloud.

It is a joy to share my music with you, and I hope you enjoy listening!

Welcome on my profile.

As a young boy, I learned to play the piano with my grandmother, who was a concert pianist. Thanks to her patience, I was brought closer to music. It was a hard but worthwhile way.

After I ended my school training and started my vocational training, the music got into the background. However, the music has accompanied me throughout my life. With increasing age, the music again got a greater status in my life.

First with the old piano of my grandmother, who had long since died and then with a keyboard, I started making music again.

I don't have a studied musical background and make music as a hobby without really had learned about orchestration. I find myself slowly into the topic and I am happy to have found some listeners.

Inspired by many lovely people, who also make music, I develop myself even at older age and look forward to further listeners.

Therefore, have fun hearing my modest works and thank you for the nice comments.
