I’m releasing two recordings today: this first one is tiny – it’s just a clip of a woman I met who had been hanging out at the South Station public piano for multiple days, hours a day. She was trying to amass signatures for a petition to save the pianos. I wonder what became of that?
I launched into this jaunty tune. Seemed very appropriate for South Station. There were actually two pianos set up next to each other there, which was unique.

This one is from earlier on last Thursday. I thought that I would try to shake things up by trying to intersperse unexpected and odd chords with my more habitual flow of improvisation. You’ll hear more things than usual that could sound like mistakes, but I try to run with them and see where they lead. This is really the first of a two-part recording. I stopped recording, then decided I wanted to continue, so started again where I left off. You’ll hear the second part tomorrow.
Also, I have now officially made it halfway through this one-recording-per-day project for March! Woohoo!

My last recording of the night on Thursday. I had tried some improvisations earlier with a relatively large concentration of random chance chords and sonorities (you’ll hear these ones soon). In this last one, I gravitated to one lovely, dependable key: the fabulous F major! Enjoy…

Here’s one from the Esplanade at night. I was pretty close to the hatch shell. What a fun, weird experience to play a piano outdoors in a park. I somehow think this improvisation even sounds like night music…
