Improvisation on a theme provided by the audience

Alexander Scriabin's Vers la Flamme Op. 72

October 26, 2012 22:33 - 5 minutes - 9.45 MB

One of my all time favorite pieces.  Scriabin really breaks new ground - especially in terms of using the contrast between a perceived presence and a perceived absense of a beat (meter) as a structural element. 

Variations on Goldberg

October 20, 2012 13:59 - 6 minutes - 6.01 MB

This is a new piano composition that I wrote for my composition teacher Dr. Peter DeWitt on the occasion of his retirement from Shorter University. It begins with the aria from the JS Bach's Goldberg Variations and continues with variations on the bass line.  

Chopin: Etude in C minor Op. 25 no. 12

October 13, 2012 23:41 - 2 minutes - 2.49 MB

One of my favorites.  Notice the tribute to Bach - its really an embellished chorale (like the first prelude from WTC I, for instance).  Chopin even adds a transposed B-A-C-H at 0:18 .

Improvisation on a Theme Provided by the Audience

September 19, 2012 14:33 - 3 minutes - 6.85 MB

I enjoy closing my recitals by inviting a member of the audience to join me on stage and give me a short theme on which to create an improvisation.  The audience seems to enjoy this moment in the performance and it allows me to connect with them in a special way.  It is usually the highlight of the evening for me.  Sometimes I am given a compact disc recording of the performance by the hall manager, which allows me to keep the improvisation as a momento of the evening.   I put a few of thes...

Asleep
