Part of the introduction to the Great Masters Bach, Mozart and Beethoven will include performances of some of their music. These are a select few of the more simpler pieces that should demonstrate minimally the usage of the Left and Right hand in coordination with each other in a musical and expressive manner. This is an absolutely microscopic window into the almost infinite creativity and pinnacle of mastery of these extraordinary musical geniuses, but should provide the general public an easy and pleasing introduction to the Great Masters.

Abstract Improvisation with Chaos Timing
I have a memory of a flea, so I prefer making up stuff on the 88s. This is what I call ‘Abstract Improvisation’ and its just letting my fingers express what I’m thinking. There is no thought to timing, rhythm, nor musical modality….just jumping and dancing…like a flea that learned to jump outside the box.
First Composition in C major
My first composition that reflects the joy of having my first daughter, Emily. It has no regard to Academic Timing, Structure or Modalities, just emotional reflection of joy.
