Ballad (solo piano)
I'm working on my 14th CD and part of it includes three short piano pieces. Composed and produced in Sonar Platinum using Pianoteq's physical modeling piano. Play The link above will take you to the web page that also has the score, which I've just included. Enjoy! Jerry

Very pretty and using some scales in there which lifts it into the 'interesting' category as well. I don't know what the rest of your album is like, but I'm confident this and the other piano pieces are no mere fillers. Beautifully played.

That is very brave of you to play a "classical" piece through software. I wish I wasn't listening through computer speakers, but it sounded musical and convincing through them. I checked out your Pianoteq video competition 2015, which was actually very impressive. You can get away with more in that style, but it sounded lovely. You sound like you can find your way around on an acoustic piano... what do you think? I'd love to hear you play a really fine acoustic instrument in a recital hall. I realize I'm mostly talking about the sound and expression of the instrument. I've been a little out of the loop, technologically, lately. As long as I can get a good recording of my sax into a .wav file, I'm pretty happy! lol!

You've got some interesting changes in there, Jerry. Almost like a jazz piece trying to disguise itself as classical.

I do play acoustic piano. This piece was sequenced in Sonar using the mouse, I didn't play anything in. I just posted the score in the original post, you can see that it is physically impossible for one player to play this piece, that is unless the player has very, very large hands! ;>) Jerry
