Search - Piano Solo, I'lana Sandra Cotton :: Songs for the Journey

From the liner notes: "Life is a Journey filled with journeys, journeys of all kinds- physical, intellectual, emotional, spiritual, and each has its own rhythm and mood." "Songs for the Journey" is a strong and expressive blend of classical Western technique, dynamics and musical form with Eastern modalities and melodic ideas. These solo piano improvisations are often inspired by visual arts and media, poetry and dance: alternatively intense with energy, then quiet; fast and driving, then slow and spacious; dense and complex, then focussed on a solo melody. Some songs are restless and seeking solutions, others are playful and full of movement, others meditate on smallness and vastness. A Journey filled with journeys.
