Rainy etude on Salamander Grand Piano

Post by psyocean »

Greetings!

It's time to blow the dust off from Salamander Grand Piano :)
Audio: https://soundcloud.com/psyocean/rainy

Also you can see the video, sounded by this melody, from a walk along the Ladoga fjords in Karelia:

Curious. Nice piano sound, but I'm not sure if the hesitancy is due to it being an improv (always hard to think ahead) or intended. Either way it fits the idea.
Lovely picture to go with it.

It's a nice improv. The piano sound and recording is great. The pictures go with the music although they push even more towards the grey side. Maybe the music by itself is not that much. Or maybe it is more. Karelia must also be very nice on sunny days. Very much like forests in mid/northern Canada.

Cheers.

Wow sounds good. You are talented. It reminds me of the music during very serious and emotional scenes in movies.
In the movies it would start like this and then gradually some heartfelt pro orchestral chamber strings would supplement the lead piano. But you'd have to hire a small orchestra to get that effect.

But the piano sounds great on it's own.
I used to play classical piano too, but alas, I forgot how to read sheet music and didn't keep up my skills for that style.

My only complaint is that the title almost scared me away. :lol:
