Overture
on: June 26, 2020, 05:23:28 PM
So I've tried to spent the last few months constructively..

Anyway, pleased to say that I'm going to release onto Spotify what is in effect a bit of a one-off project, an album almost entirely of improvisations (there are four miniature preludes which aren't improvised, all the rest is pure improvisation with a bit of post-event editing and some audio enhancement). It's reached the "delivery" stage on various platforms, so I'm hoping it will be in the wider world within 7-10 days..

Here is a little preview track, the opening one of the collection. This was a live public improvisation.

Thanks, glad you enjoyed it!

Whilst YT does have the playlist a few posts above available for the full set of improvisations, I've additionally put the main set of preludes online as one collective entity:
