about the music here
June 4th, 2008
Included here are a wide variety of projects, experiments, and improvisations, some of which are unpolished or brief.. and various random and experimental pieces, some very old stuff, and many quick sketches.
mostly improvs; these are recorded in one go with no preparation or plan, which i enjoy more than anything.
Cheers, and thanks for listening!

Wow, I sure wish I could play piano like that…
I wish I could just jam with somebody that could play piano like that.
Very beautiful.
Props, kudos, all of it!

It has that wiff of honesty it sounds like there is a real connection to what you are playing. What the world does not need is another great piano player, thousands leave jazz schools every year. We need ARTISTS. You could well be the latter!!!

Very nice piano music – it’s very George Winston-ish and he has been known to calm my soul when it’s been up in the air!!!!!
Thanks!

Andrew,
Thanks for your lovely CD. I took me this long to get around to listening to it. I’m sorry I didn’t listen to it sooner. It’s absolutely a lovely gift.
Peace,
Magaly

The opening sequence actually ran shivers through me.

Those improvs are amazing! They should be used in a movie. I never thought that simple cheap flute would rise to such heights! You are right, Andrew, I bought the flute in Turkey (Istanbul I believe) in the summer of 1966, while on a car vacation with several fellow English students from Cambridge. I don’t remember the actual purchase – it might have been in Greece instead of Turkey. We drove from England through Austria, Hungary, Rumania, Bulgaria, Turkey, Greece, and Yugoslavia that summer. The scariest part was driving on a one-lane gravel road through Yugoslavia, five miles from Albania, when we found ourselves in the middle of a long convoy of tanks traveling in the same direction. But since Yugoslavia was the only Eastern European country at that time to sell CocaCola, I figured we were OK.
