In Memory for those who have left us.
on: January 28, 2006, 02:53:57 AM
Music to me is something where I can express the inexpressible. Sometimes there are emotions that we go through that we simply cannot understand with our own human logic and minds.

In this case my playing is in memory of someone who I never knew but who touched the life of someone very important to me. They died tragically in an accident which seemed so meaningless and unneeded, something that happens in this world a great deal.

The music follows a few ideas, I followed the last day leading up to the tragity till around 2:27 which then has some morbid hint as to what is to come with a simple single note warning sound. Then from around 2:57-4:10 highlights the actual moment leading to the accident. From 4:10-7:24 highlights my own spiritual feeling as to what the meaning behind it all was, Gods time is best, something along those lines the only way I could ever understand the meaning behind tragity. From 7:24-8:15  is my imagination as to people who observe the tragic aftermath of the accident, especailly my close friend who had to go and identify the remains. Then there is a lot of sadness coming to terms with what happened from 8:15- 10:45. Till the end how life continues as if nothing had happened at all.

I posted this for a few people who wanted it so they could download it, it saves me having to upload it to individual people, but everyone is welcome of course to download it.

I just stumbled upon this one while watching "who is online" and I listen with great interest. Sounds like a familiar language to me.

Thanks for listening to the improvisation, it is really too bad the quality isn't the best but the recording was done about 7 years ago now I didn't have very good recording stuff. This kind of music is very close to me, it is almost like an evening meditation. I like to play free of thought about the keyboard and simply listen to sound. I guess I hope one day it evolves into something which can express my thoughts in sound, in my own way :)
