Description:
One of the infinite ways of composing music consists of sitting at the piano, alone – hence the title Solo – starting to dream and exploring endless combinations of sounds, letting the mind go, and then fixing on paper the best results of those sessions. With this piece, I try to capture the magic of some of those moments while also recounting something about the creative process itself in a self-reflective way.
In fact, the actual creative unfolding is often not as linear as what you will hear. I "cut out the dull bits" and chose not to insert in the final composition the countless interruptions, temper tantrums, and dead ends that often pervade such sessions. Nonetheless, as you will hear, I did describe some ‘failed attempts,’ and the piece does mock some hitches and glitches of the creative process. In writing this music, I tried to create something unique and poetic.
