I love this. It's a story. I see the picture on the right and I understand connection and beauty. It has celebration in its heart. There is love. Culture. You make me love life. Don't stop. We need you!

Usually, when I'm composing I have a strong imaginative concept that motivates me and lures me to the result.  
As an exception in these types of projects, I imagine just where the trumpet should go and how can boost and highlight the overall try. 
So these compositions even if that alone, are fair enough to get listened to and enjoyed, are not complete without trumpet because their existing purpose was to get paired and accompanied by the trumpet's element. 
Here is our second try with https://soundcloud.com/igor-iofe-1 . So great progress on our two-month journey and still on the start point of this cooperation try. Happy Holidays for the days that are remaining.

This is our third attempt with https://soundcloud.com/igor-iofe-1 . One of my favourite composers is Karaindrou these arpeggios in the right hand are a great inspiration by her techniques and advanced skill that she has to progress the basic theme to very emotional results! 
  As I have said and the last times about this project everything is getting composed with the idea that it will be combined with trumpet so the piano by itself even if it's an average result and is capable to capture in a decent way when you hear it. In a comparison of the duet, the result is not a complete view of the image that wants to describe. I wish you a beautiful weekend!

My new single from my upcoming album "Piano Stories". Like so many people, I am shaken by the terrible events of the last few weeks. Images, stories, deeply disturbing truths. Here, on "A Precious Place" the deep longing for a protected place. A place to which all people have a right and yet which so many millions sorely miss.

For me, it is a kind of therapy album that pulls me out of this powerlessness and gives me strength. Strength to continue to believe in the good in people and strength to fight for the good and for freedom. Perhaps - and this is my hope - you too will find something in it that will help you at this time.  - Sebastian

A Precious Place

Being There..

Our thoughts and inner talk are with us constantly, driving our emotions, as our emotions drive our thoughts. Sometimes this can be a peaceful place, at other times, more reflective, or sad yet filled with hope. Our thoughts can be wonderful things, yet if we begin to 'drown'  in them they can be a danger as we can become overwhelmed, dwell on things or worries that may not come to be, or become stuck within grief and loss which can both comfort us and hold us back. I often find myself thinking too much, and need to remember the 'moment', to stop over-analysing fear, sadness, and to focus on the peaceful and hopeful times, and one of the best ways for me to express this, is through music, as so many of you do <3 xx

Drowning In Our Thoughts - Megs McCarthy

Hello Darkness (x)

Conversation with myself

While I was soundchecking in Hasselt, before the Piano Anders #3 concert, this melody came to find me. 
When I came home I immediately recorded it and tonight I finished mixing and mastering it. 
And now it's here. 

Enjoy. 



Somehow familiar

You know that feeling... the sky is heavy with clouds, the daylight is dull like dusk at noon... you know there's snow on the way... but it's not here yet.

Soon...

This track was written for Piano Day 2021 (a bit early 😁)
