Whispers (a tale on piano)
Hey hey, here's something from the archives called Whispers:
https://youtu.be/yjeilEyrcBI
It was meant as a story/lovesong. I picked it out because it creates a nice arch from the brooding moody intro, through the stuff of lovesongs on to something else...
I think the piano was PMI/Sampletekk's Black Grand (medium ambience) with a lexicon chamber IR reverb processed through jconvolver. The rest is noise or music.
Best wishes, Jeanette

Re: Whispers (a tale on piano)
Damn, you are good! I listened to it with Kajsa, we liked it a lot!
I am impressed with some chord changes, and how you play it piano/keyboard.
Very beautiful!

Re: Whispers (a tale on piano)
I'm always impressed by your proficiency with the piano, and this makes no exception... actually, this may be one of the pieces you shared I liked the most so far, just for the brillancy of the composition and execution. The first minute in particular, with the 7/8 (7/4?) part and how it then changes, reminded me of the amazing piano parts in Renaissance songs, while 4:30 onward reminded me of Brad Love, yet another aor/prog artist that really knew how to make a piano sing!

Re: Whispers (a tale on piano)
Hi @Rainmak3r , funny thing: I didn't even know/realise at the time that I was playing in 7/8, that's how I'd count iot now. That's the blessing and curse in playing completely free. You just do it.
The end of the piece foreshadowed the next song of that album and thus has a much more proggy attitude in preparation.

Re: Whispers (a tale on piano)
Let's hope your archives continue to grow, and go public.
This is a very enjoyable tale. It would be unfair to name-drop famous artist names here,
because the music is not theirs, but yours. So I will only suggest that if you were playing this
in the lobby of some high-end resort in Las Vegas, that people normally worthy of being namedropped,
would stop and listen.
Godspeed

Re: Whispers (a tale on piano)
I am speechless at the quality of this. Totally agree with @glowrak guy, I think I could not have said it better. I think if you are interested and someone here has some connections, you should try to get signed to a label. Not necessarily for commercial reasons, more because I think your music deserves to be heard outside of this forum, regardless of the fact that it's made on Linux!
No surprise @Rainmak3r liked this because I think it has some points of contact with his music!

Re: Whispers (a tale on piano)
Very nice piece, @jeanette_c, one of the best I've heard from you although I'm not into solo piano music.
Personally I liked the first part more. It reminded me of some King Crimson's passages no matter how weird it may sound. Seems that I can even hear it in polyphonic, with guitars, bass, drums, flutes and everything like that. Not reaching its climax, all this jazz madness passes into the second part - simpler and lighter. And although my polyphonic vision collapses here, I still think that everything is done in style.
Thanks for it!

Sorry if I distracted you with such a nonsense.
