Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night with just the coolest tiny idea? perhaps a musical dream? these small pieces are just that,, tiny little musical notes that just seem to break into my normal musical day,, one take suff
think…
about Winter Nacht
each year for the past 4 RPM cycles,, i have known a friend or loved one who has passed away... throughout history winter has been a time when sickness and death creep a little stronger amongst us..... perhaps because of these…

You sure getting SOME deep bass out of whatever you are playing. I can see the snow blowing against the window. Your frozen breath as you sit in the frigid room. Fingers cut out in your gloves so you can feel the brittle keys.

Last one to upload today (probably)
Year: 1977
Album:
Classical Clones
Artist's description:
Something I found on tape - the best of the 6 pieces.
Me preforming a Villa Lobos piece about 1977 - a recording made while preparing for a recital…
I like IT!!!,, very nicely played, also you continue to amaze me with your production intensity, ah i hear Pyewacket,,, mine Dachshund Howie,, has a particular habit of howling whenever i play Bach,,, it's sort of funny (to me at least) i have thought of making a video of he and i in duet,,, anyhow well played friend
One could use this to compare the changes I made to accommodate the change in tuning because this is the Centaur tuned piece but I changed the master tuning back to "standard" 12 equal.
So I'm back at Caffe Lena on Thursday night gearing up for my two songs and a band called "Driftwood" takes the stage (banjo, acoustic guitar, fiddle) and blows everyone away.
Kinda gets me thinking...
And writing...
"Driftwood"
Coming down…
Well, I should give some background. Sometimes, for me, the difference in tunings are hard to discern - I don't have perfect or even good relative pitch discrimination. So I can get fooled. The Prelude for a Centaur tuned piano was actually composed…
indeed i thought the 1st was very "wholesome", this is the same piece, note wise as the former? if not if seems very similar to me,,, i enjoy both,, this one might have a bit more bite? anyway well done
This is a recording of Norm and me playing together a few months ago. I didnt have any percussion instruments so Norm was on a Roland electric trap set and I had a cello. I looped some of the stuff we did that night, and retrofitted the rest…
Just a simple humble ditty, one of a handful I've been playing on the piano lately.
I haven't been in the mood to do much recording in the last months — or more specifically, haven't been in the mood to flesh out and arrange tunes. So this…
nice,, myself sometimes i carry a whole head full of ideas around,, until something happens and i just record and see what happens,, once again well done
~timeless~
Rhythms of modern life, which comes from the environment and force us to follow, are often (let say, always) does not correspond to our inner rhythms. First, we do not have time to stop, think, or simply do nothing. Then when we…
Well, this may be the final tweaking of this nice little sing along song...
I sent this fun little sing along off to Jim of MTC fame, and once again he has outdone himself... And I can't thank him and his wife (who appears covertly) enough…
A song about meeting up with each other this year for some music and booze next week.
Lyrics-
i need some space
i need some time
just to rehearse
for the viking dance
what should i wear
what should i bring
what will we sing…
well it sounds like its been a night for the clinking of ice in glasses,,, gotta say that photo is making me a bit thirsty.... this piece has a rich texture to it
I plugged my Fender Mustang directly into the Zoom H2 and monitored with head phones while sitting on my bed and played around. This is a compressed version of one of the things I did. I've been pretty sick the past few days but I needed to…
Comments on richardlaceves's stuff
Such sensitive playing, perfect for this summers evening!
Thank you very much Richard, You've made my day! This is really very beautiful indeed!
You're such a great musican Richard! Love these wonderful sounds...you've created a masterpiece! (I've uploaded a church organ this morning!;-)
You sure getting SOME deep bass out of whatever you are playing. I can see the snow blowing against the window. Your frozen breath as you sit in the frigid room. Fingers cut out in your gloves so you can feel the brittle keys.
moving and soulful.
tender...full of hope
Beautiful.
Hauntingly beautiful! This really sets a dark undertone. Well done!
Symphony of the blizzard and feelings that uplift and give us hope. ~Hope where is nothing to hope~
From note to note, from moment to moment, from shadow to shadow, I go, and you will go. That will be there, so far away? ~Path upward is not as easy~
~from moments to moments~
~thin tunes out of only twelve notes...~
Wonderful playing Richard on all five love the sweetness of moment 4.............loved it all as a complete piece
So serene. This series is comforting and relaxing, the perfect antidote to stress. I have to get Tess to download it for me. Ha, don't ask!!
And love it too!
All beautiful works here. right on the money!
Listening while skateboard in the park...this is really good music for this. Nice soft breeze.
Stunning.
Oh my, these are great! I am definitely a fan.
soul and beauty blended seamlessly!
