Since many of my artist friends know I was a musician, I thought I'd offer a couple of short samples of my old piano performances. These are on a standard upload site (Hightail), used by business etc, so if you want them, they're wholly safe. I'm offering if you desire. If not, please enjoy the image.
They're about 3 minutes each:
The 1st is Chopin's "Revolutionary Etude", performed in the 1980s. The recording-quality isn't great, as it's from an old recital. But it's clear. The 2d was an assignment, where we were asked to play "in the style" of Chopin: It was improvised; but know that we all brought lots of experience to our improvs, so it's hardly "on the fly". It's softer and more inward...
(I have lots of jazz and avant garde too, but I'll keep it to Chopin for now.)
The image is from an old dance painting I posted: I turned it into a performance to celebrate music-making. It's just a glittery way of saying it's exciting to share art with others...
The links - just an invitation. They're active till wednesday...
