Name: Preludes (for piano) - I - "For Peter Nickol" [2021] *NEW RECORDING* by Mark Dowding
Duration: 1 min 12 s
Description: The first piece from my "Preludes (for piano)", which I wrote using 12-tone technique. This piece is dedicated to my former composition tutor, Mr. Peter Nickol. https://www.impulse-music.co.uk/peternickol/

though this does not sound like Bach, somehow it sounds like it follows a similar logic

I’m really liking the 12 tone technique here. To me it sounds psychedelic. The atonal geometry takes you to a different place

Forward and upwards
No need to look back
When I hear your voice
I almost see your face
Give me that reality check

Detours and sideways
as push came to shove

Windows and doorways
(crawling out, pushing through)
loopholes and timeframes
Forward and upwards
(don't come back, don't look down)
fragile but agile
I know we can make it okay

I see you are wearing a mask 
 (lay it down)
to hide from the gazes

We're okay with everything
We're okay with everything

U-turns and ley lines,
cruising and loosing myself
every inch of the way
Can you shed a light
(show it to me)
on this conundrum now?
I'll wear my heart on my sleeve

Occupy where are you now?
Did you find a way for salvation?
(show me the way now)

Forward and upwards
)how to get myself out of here)
I'll only transmit on your wavelength

Forward

YOU TAKE THE LONG WAY HOME
THE SHORT WAY IT TAKES TO LONG
SOMETIMES YOU TRY TO FLY TO HIGH AWAY
MAY'BE YOU'LL FALL AGAIN SOMEDAY

YOU FIND THE WAY TO GO
THEN FALLING BACK TO EARTH
WHAT IF YOU FLY TO HIGH AND LOSE YOUR WAY
I PRAY ANOTHER DAY WILL COME
(chorus)
I CAN FLY
IT'S JUST A HEARTBEAT FROM THE GROUND
I CAN FLY HIGH HIGH  ONLY TAKES A LITTLE

WHERE HAS THE DAYLIGHT GONE
THE NIGHT LIFE IT'S IN YOUR BLOOD
AND WHEN THE SUN IT COMES YOU FALL AWAY
AND WHEN IT FALLS AGAIN YOU'LL SAY
(chorus)
I CAN FLY
IT'S JUST A HEARTBEAT FROM THE GROUND
I CAN FLY HIGH HIGH  ONLY TAKES A LITTLE
MAY'BE JUST A LITTLE
(break)
(chorus)
I CAN FLY
IT'S JUST A HEARTBEAT FROM THE GROUND
I CAN FLY HIGH HIGH  ONLY TAKES A LITTLE
MAY'BE JUST A LITTLE

ANOTHER WORLD

*I am releasing the COMPLETE version of POLEMIC, very soon!* I am a British composer, who has studied composition privately with British composer Peter Nickol https://www.impulse-music.co.uk/peternickol/ (although I am largely self-taught). I have also studied piano (privately) with concert pianist Ekaterina Shetliffe. 
My music contains elements of impressionism, and musical modernism; I have also explored 12-tone composition.
For several years now, I have been developing my own composition technique, which focuses on the liminal area between stochastic and spectral music, which I intend to use in my future compositions.

Composers who have influenced me include Schumann, Chopin, Schoenberg, and Ligeti; however my formative musical inspiration is the music of Debussy.
