A Meta-Game – Shadow Complex and Double Fantasy

Sometimes I play a metagame of playing a computer game with a completely mismatched soundtrack. I’ll turn off the music in the game’s settings itself, put something on itunes, balance the volume settings and play.

Today’s was Double Fantasy – Stripped Down and Shadow Complex.

From “Beast” to “Wind at Play” – Morning Music Session

So much of the emotional impact of music comes from the transition of one phase into another. Here, I move from a darker synth world into a peaceful piano one.

Calm and the Morning Piano Sessions

I’ve set up a new morning piano series. New works should be released every few days or so.

You can check out the Facebook page too.

The first is an improvisation called “Blend”:

Jim had asked me to accompany him for a performance at the St. Charles library. I’m always in awe of his guitar playing skills.  The Youtube videos don’t quite show off his ability as you can see in person.

But he’s also got substance over style. For example, check out True North for a relaxed, well structured, album of music.

Piano Performance at Depaul – June 21st

In a very rare occasion, I’ll be performing live at DePaul University’s Holtschneider Performance Center on June 21st at 2pm.  It’ll be a free concert.  Be there or be square!
