Foggy Sydney Morning

11 Apr 2012

'Foggy Sydney Morning - still and even.  Really enjoying the newly repaired hammers in my piano, they let me wander around the piano and try out the pressure when i hit the keys - they are lovely and even themselves. Hopefully my continued exploration brings you a moment of peace in your day'

Uncomplicated Music

11 Apr 2012

'Makes me wanna write some words - poetry even.  Been listening a lot this week to complicated classical music.  I think I just wanted to play in 4/4 and stop thinking!'

Sounds like Johnny Cash

14 Mar 2012

'I started listening to the radio again - FBI our fearless alternative to anything else.  I was listening to a comtemporary sound and a voice that sure did sound like Johnny Cash.  Back announce - Hurt by Trent Reznor, performed by Johnny Cash.  Inspiring and sort of chilling at the same time.  I drove straight home and composed this piece.'
