Spring Wedding

A version of my wedding march played in a digital piano as a grand piano.
When I composed the original piece, for violin, I had in mind the simplicity and meditative spirit of Franz Liszt compositions, and this piano version makes me believe this is fitting for the intended purpose.
Recalls to mind the church bells ringing with joy.

Violin meditation

An exercise in which I play in slow improvisation with my eyes closed.
A few mistakes are due to this.
The camera lost focus somewhere but the goal here is definitely not to focus on my image — you can take advantage of that fact 😉

Alto Giove

The power of Art to uplift us from darkness.

Its worthy noting that the singing voice was a synthetic blend of two voices, that of soprano Ewa Malas-Godlewska and counter-tenor Derek Lee Ragin, to achieve the perfect androgynous voice of the 18th century castrati opera singers.

Bedtime Story

This is an ancient betime story. It was passed down from generations.
And now its your turn to learn about it and sleep as an angel.
