I've never seen Naiko. We've only been talking for a month now. Hearing her stories and seeing only one picture of her showed me the pain and hurt in her eyes. The eyes never lie.
What they say is always true,
Music begins where words fail.

For Naiko

Calm.
cold
and broken...
This is an anonymous voice...
who was born on a cold night in the depths of darkness.
composer and piano: Kianoush Koureshi

The three tracks of 'Hanging', 'Footsteps of the Night' and 'Eyes Shut' are the three bonus tracks/encores to the collection of my 'Piano Days 1' album which has been previously uploaded on Spotify and elsewhere, but not in Soundcloud.

(The 'Piano Day 1' album contains the piano compositions that I have been producing over the past years, from 2015 to 2021, along with three fresh ones that you can listen to now.)

So, here they are. I hope you enjoy them, in case you haven't listened to them yet.

Last Second

 تکه هایی از خویش، همچون کاشی های شکسته ای که ردی از گذشته در خود دارند اما دیگر تعلقی ندارند.قطعاتی منفرد  که اینک  از خط هویت گذشته جدا شده اند و در دگر-فرمی معنایی دیگر پیدا می کنند.
 


Fragments are short musical pieces that emerge from forgotten parts of the self—memories and sensations carried in body and mind, reawakened in exile or displacement.
These fragments surface in sudden encounters: in the familiarity of a melody, in the strangeness of an unfamiliar city, or in the longing for a home that has become distant, destroyed, or irretrievable.

I imagine them like broken tiles: carrying the texture and touch of the past, but no longer fitting into their original whole. They require a new context—a new collective in which they can belong. My aim is not to restore them to what they once were, but to reveal their transformation, to give them new color and resonance in the present.
