From "Going Home", Tristan's new album of solo piano improvisations.  Listen to/download the album:  https://tristaneckerson.com/

For "Going Home", Tristan Eckerson's first full length album in two years, the composer/pianist decided to shy away from his normal compositional approach, opting instead for an album of completely improvised pieces for solo piano. Recorded by Tristan with the unique sound of the Una Corda piano, the stream of consciousness tracks evoke the sounds of Tristan's influences, including Ryuichi Sakamoto, Tigran Hamasyan, and Ballaké Sissoko, and hover between the worlds of classical and jazz.
