Piano

I grew up with a piano in my parents' house. I started playing with it at a relatively young age (7?), but didn't take it seriously until I was in my early teens, when I started dabbling in chords and repeatable melodies. I've since "written" (mostly, improvised) about an album and a half worth of piano music. I love playing; it's an emotional outlet for me, as well as a means of glorifying the Author of all music.

Here are a few samples. These are one-shot recordings and do contain mistakes.

  1. It Was a Dark and Stormy Night
