Details:
If you enjoy the sound of the piano, and the expressive range it can produce, then you''ve found a CD worth listening to! I''ve heard music and melodies ''in my head'' for as long as I can remember...and I''ve been attuned to sounds, rhythyms and the ''feel'' of things since before I began playing piano at the age of eight.
I grew up with the usual classical influences, but was also drawn to rock ''n roll, jazz, show tunes and improvisational artists such as Keith Jarrett. My musical explorations reflect these influences and inform my style of playing to this day.
Music creates a range of emotions, and brings to mind various ''images'' if one simply sits and listens...something in this fast-paced world we don''t often take the time for. But I believe that if we listen consciously, whether for relaxation or inspiration, music can also heal the psyche and spirit at a deeper level. Hence the title of this CD: "For The Mending of Hearts."
Becoming one with the "feel of the moment" guides my playing and informs my compositions, and I hope you can ''sense the moment'' of these pieces as you listen to the music and savor it at a deeper level.
May these pieces inspire and guide you into your own explorations of the heart and spirit....where inner reflection can reveal hidden treasures....and where healing and inspiration can be found. Check out my website for current appearances, other musings, and additional information about me.
