Bio / Background
"17 Solo Piano Improvisations"
17 Solo Piano Improvisations is a
suite of loosely related,variously styled
improvised pieces orbiting around certain
features of the music of Franz Liszt. They
document the idea of a direct pathway from
the Beethoven-influenced-Liszt on to Debussy,
Bartok,Schoenburg, Ligeti, Stockhausen, and
certain features of mid-20th century jazz. My
abiding affection for Liszt's personality
and work began with my early reading of his
fanastic life story which I was intoxicated
as I was with his music (especially those
remarkable (Ruth Slencszynaska's Decca
recordings from the 1950's, all of which
should be reissued)! His legendary life led
me to an idealized-heroic lifestyle of my
own wherein I too would dedicate myself to
the pursuit of the true, the noble,the new,
and the beautiful in music.
