Subtle yet powerful, lots of dynamics in your playing!

Interesting rhythm - seems not a straight 3/4 but I cant figure out exactly where it deviates :-)

Someone once said that symphonic orchestra is the most sophisticated musical instrument humanity ever invented. And I always felt like this is an ultimate challenge for a composer to write music for such a giant. I started my first shy attempts to compose orchestral music a few years ago. Of course, at that time it was all done using digital libraries. I did dream that one day I may experience the thrill of hearing a live orchestra performing my compositions but that was truly an ephemeral dream, no actual plans to do it. Until now.

This summer my husband and I took a composing course (focusing on film composing). As a part of that course I had a homework: to compose a piece for a string orchestra. I chose the solo piano piece I wrote earlier this year as a foundation. It took a few evenings to come up with the orchestral arrangements - again, using digital libraries... at first! But then my husband said that he feels like this piece deserves to be recorded with live orchestra. And so it happened - two months ago we hired a session orchestra from Budapest. We only had half an hour session to record 2.5 minutes of this composition. Gosh, it was such an amazing experience! When I heard 40 musicians playing the harmony I burst in tears. Then I was shocked again to learn that my composition was nominated for Hollywood Music in Media Awards.

I called this piece "Distant Memories". It was written during one of the lockdowns when I was on the edge of breaking down. I devoted it to my mom, who lives on the other side of Atlantic but she used to come here every year.. until 2020.. and then 2021.. I hope we will see each other next year. But meanwhile all we have are those "distant memories".

The original piano solo version is coming next week!

"Besides being makers of music, the most compelling composers are also storytellers and “The Rainy Road” has certainly has the magic dust of an alluring narrative written all over it.

By Francesco’s own account, it sums up feelings associated with all of the traveling, leaving, loneliness, and relocation that have been constants in his life over the past ten years. [...]

Everything revolves around a recurring melody that was sketched on a piece of paper while staying in an apartment in Kraków (Poland) last year and which proved be the catalyst."

earth wind & fire- september

Lost

Danza - Violin & Piano (Live Concert Music)

I found myself in a misty landscape beside a tranquil lake. The stillness of the wind and water allowed me to find a moment of peace, despite the emotions I was feeling. I realized that it was okay to be vulnerable and open to sorrow, and that by doing so, I could let those feelings pass through me.

A few days later, I was inspired to create a short musical piece. For this recording, I decided to try something new. I used my old upright piano, which has been a faithful companion to me for many years. Although the sound is not perfect and the mechanics of the piano sometimes produce unwanted noise, I have come to appreciate the beauty of imperfection.

I believe that when we can embrace the quirks and imperfections of people and things, we are more likely to see the beauty in ourselves and accept ourselves for who we are.
