Intricacy and Depth is what inspired me to compose and perform this piano piece in to accompany this impressive collection of paintings. In the final image "The Last Supper" there is so much to take in, I ended up playing in a very 'running' style.
This is the type of unusual and exciting project that stimulates me as a musician. I was given the DVD with no sound beforehand and asked to prepare piano pieces for each artist. On the day of the recording, I was in the studio Steinway in front of me and TV monitor screen to my right and the record button pressed ! Here you can experience the results.
The works were exhibited at the Saatchi Gallery and filmed for Astra, director Tony Salmon
These paintings have lovely, evocative washes of colour, which inspired me to compose in a flowing piano style. I get a feeling of calm when watching this sequence - I hope you do too.
