Here's the first improv I have recorded this year, on our freshly tuned Petrof Model III Grand. If you like Romanticism with a heavy dose of strange harmonic changes, you'll enjoy this. Let me know what you think.

Nice sonorous piece. I love the melody that appears at 1.45. Somehow a lot in this music reminds me of Rachmaninoff. Are you also an addicted fan? Anyway you prove that some of the styles of the "past" can still be used with great benefit, and can very well be combined with an individual style like yours.

Thanks pianowolfi. Yes, I'd say if there was one composer I'd take with me to a deserted island (cds, sheet music, etc.) it'd be Rachmaninov.
