Hey Pianostreet,

Releasing an album of original solo piano music. I'm releasing it early on YouTube but it's officially being released on Spotify and other platforms October 31. Would love your comments.

Thanks for posting, I listened to it a few times, very atmospheric, very serene ambiance. No surprise, I suppose, that the improvised one stood out for me, freer expression somehow. I like the surprise chords at 6:21 and 6:49. The chimes one has an Asian influence, not unlike some of the improvisations Nicholas (nickc) has posted here in the past.
