A Little Dark Music

An ambient yet powerful collection of compositions that bring a sense of peace and contentment to listeners. A Little Dark Music features four introspective tracks exploring real-world themes such as the environment, poverty and Sept. 11. This album includes the frequently performed piece, Earth Hour, a 60-minute composition, experienced in the dark, that gives audiences an almost otherworldly experience. "It's arpeggio-filled pop-classical-style music reminiscent of Philip Glass' solo piano work." – Victoria Times Colonist "Earth Hour really should be heard as one continuous piece, a journey… Highly recommended… [A Little Dark Music] will make waves musically." – WholeNote Magazine One-fold cardsleeve with a slot for the disc. "Working With The Sun" was inspired b solar power projects for schools in Africa. "The Week After" was composed in the days following 9/11 depicting the personal struggle of coming to grip with what happened. "Poverty" was influenced by a public awareness campaign from 2005 delivering the sobering statistic that a child dies every 3 seconds. "Earth Hour" is 60 minutes of continuous, contemplative piano music inspired by and experienced in the dark. Recorded January 10 & 12, 2010 in CBC's Studio 211, Toronto, Canada. © 2010
