Sanpo Melodies - Music for Watercolour & Piano
on: September 06, 2021, 06:44:11 AM
Here is a selection of pieces from a collaboration I did with an artist in Tokyo, Satoko Noguchi. There are 12 pieces in all but I'll only post four here. The work cycles through a year from Spring to Winter, with three pieces and three painting in each season. I have included here one piece from each season.

Wonderful! I LOVE when music is mixed with visual media. I also have a soft spot for watercolor and even abstract/mostly textural art, so this stuff is right up my alley. Nice work!

Thanks very much. I also really like when music and visual media are combined so writing this music was a great (albeit challenging) experience.

Great music and great artwork. I might purchase these if I start teaching again.

I'm also curious about your website, it looks great. Is it a custom build or did you use an existing solution? May I enquire what you used?

Thanks. My website runs on Wordpress. I'm using this theme with a few of my own customisations: https://www.studiopress.com/sample/
