Will I Ever Play Again?

I have been diagnosed with Dupuytren's Contracture

after going to the doctor for what I thought was a

bike accident related injury. I thought I tore a tendon

in my finger, but a hand doctor told me that its this

rare/uncommon dupuytren's contracture and that

is why my finger is bent down and inward.

So I guess I won't be playing any piano for a while

until I can get this under control. I got a steroid

injection today in my finger and have to wait a

month to see if it works.

It's already been two years since I have even touched

my piano. I am hoping that this problem does not

cause any permanent damage as I would like to play

again some day.

Study 1 Opus 4

I wrote Opus 4 about 5 years
ago consisting of 20 studies.

Someday I will add more music here.

Happy Halloween.

Check out Flamenco Sentient below.

Enjoy.

Manic-Depressive Illness

I am an artist with manic-depressive illness

or bipolarity as it is now days called. The music

below is a product of bipolarity as it is written

in the book Touched With Fire by Dr. Kay Jamison.

She connects bipolarity with artistic creative genius

& I am living proof of this. But there is a dark side

to bipolarity which leads to suicidal tendencies as

we have seen people kill themselves who have this

illness. Right now I am in one of those dark cycles

& I am praying that I can hang in there until the

up swing of my cycle turns to a good mania from

this dark depression. It is the price I must pay to

be able to create such beautiful piano music

as below. Please Enjoy all my art.

Waltz From The Dark Side in E flat minor

I wrote this piano solo piece in 1997.

Whistler's Concerto

This is the first movement of
the whistler's concerto.
I wrote this first movement
6 years ago.

Flamenco Sentient

I wrote this piano piece in 1997
It has no Opus number, and stands
out alone for itself. I have rerecorded
this piece. It sounds clean and
crispy now. To get the score (sheet music)

for this piano piece and others, click here

Study 4 Opus 4 in F minor

I have reposted this piece, but
this time played on harpsichord
which is what I wrote it for.
It is a Gothic romance scene
in a castle.
