Traces for piano

New music for solo piano Traces for piano is composed in a highly eclectic style. It combines tonal elements found in earlier musical periods with contemporary compositional idioms resulting in a complex texture of sound. Fugal passages mesh with continuous tonal shifts and are contrasted with interspersed jazz figures against a backdrop of syncopated rhythms. The work highlights a number of influences from music of various origins (from J.S. Bach to Chick Corea, to Arnold Schönberg) and traces back to artistic expressions that helped the composer shape his own musical language.
