Just released a new piano album

Post by annayarbrough » Fri Nov 16, 2018 4:29 pm

Hey all,

Dropping this here in case any of you are interested... just released a little solo piano project (concept album) of eight short piano tracks. It's got a bit of a different sound than my usual... so hopefully you don't think it's total garbage :lol:

It's at all of the usual places, but here are a few links:

If you like it let me know what you think! And if you hate it......... spare me :mrgreen:

Listening to these bangerz. Once again your tunes are making me reflect on my poor life choices :) Lovely stuff! Cheers.

Awesome, Anna. Given that most of what we share on these forums is constrained by very specific briefs we're writing for, it's great to get a listen to what can happen when you open the gates.

Love the development throughout this, some pretty edgy stuff building up both rhythmically and melodically but with a strong sense of continuity and of a journey from start to end that makes it all make sense. Very nicely done!

Bruce.

WOW! - congrats!

Since I do songs, and generally know that the structure of one is gonna be something like 2:30 - 3:30... preferring to be even 3:00 or less;
when - if ever - in the course of composing an instrumental piece - do you set parameters for changes and/or the ending?
Do you find an inspired piece difficult to quit/stop/end/wrap up with the satisfaction of it feeling 'complete' and finished?
It's amazing what you do - that you CAN do that - seems like magic.

FWIW - though I haven't listened to a lot of it in recent years - the piano composers were usually my favorite kind of listening music.
Claude Debussy being one of them - probably because I ended up with an LP of his; not autographed, of course... :? :)
Do you know what an LP is? :? :lol: Why of course you do. (Gramps probably showed one to you...) hee hee hee...

Great job. Splendid & superb. :) Even for Old-Guy ears.
Cheers.
