By Geoff Peters  

In writing these brief pieces of music, I wanted to evoke a simple feeling or mood, much like a short poem or watercolour sketch.

These pieces are based on simple forms, and are improvisational in nature.

These pieces are all quite similar in style: generally slow, meditative, and solo piano.

If played together as a set, they can be used for meditation, relaxation or yoga. However, during daytime or working situations it may be preferable to listen to one piece per session.

A Door Opens (Listen to song).

Peaceful and meditative, this piece begins with a melancholy Ab Minor theme which is then echoed into a more reflective D major. The ending major progression is like ascending a set of steps towards the sky, or towards an open door.

(June 2006, Solo Piano,
playing time: 1 minute 18 seconds)

Male Nurse (Listen to Song)

This composition expresses the beauty of contradictions, similarities, and opposites, and also a deeper sadness at the occurrence of tragic events. The bridge section is influenced by the works of Keith Jarrett.

(March 2006, Solo Piano,
playing time: 3 minutes 14 seconds)

Piece of Quiet (Listen to Song)

Another meditative piece which I wrote to help clear my mind and calm down after a stressful situation.

(April 2005, Solo Piano,
playing time: 3 minutes 0 seconds)

Inspiration from the Sky (Listen to Song)

I imagined lying back on a sandy beach looking up at the vastness of the sky.

(May 2005, Solo Piano,
playing time: 4 minutes 17 seconds)
