Old school piano jazz. It's an easy going, smooth flowing, just plain cool jazzy piece and good for the soul. A guy sits down in a smoky room at a large black grand and plays around with jazzy swirls, runs and melodic twists. He doesn't take himself too seriously and it all ends with notes slipping down a long glissando and the bubbles on his brain disappear.

REQUIEM sets the mood in a non-relenting message or plea. It is grand in its simplicity, tones, and chords and emits a sense of emergency. In these times of uncertainty, this simple but grand statement is relevant, as it echoes the fears and despondency the world is facing.

AS IT GOES: Envision this video as a mesmerizing sequence of tableaus and scenes that offer a glimpse into a potential future for us as space travellers, intertwined with the advanced application of artificial intelligence. The video isn't intended to explore profound meanings; instead, it's designed to be enjoyable and entertaining. It presents scenes that are both beautiful and inspiring, all while being a delight to watch. The accompanying music enhances the overall experience. As a pianist and composer, the opening and closing scenes showcase the solitary aspect of my playing and the moments when inspiration strikes. "AS IT GOES" is not only enjoyable to perform but also meant to be a source of fun for the viewers.
