I discovered and immediately fell in love with this simple piece when learning to play the Renaissance lute.

I've loved this piece by Frederic Hand since I first played it in 1986. It's short but packed with beautiful harmonies and a flowing rhythm that belies it's 5/4 time signature. Give it a listen — I think you'll hear something special in it too!

I've been diving into contemporary composition techniques lately—think unconventional harmonies, shifting time, and some moments of pure atonality. This is one of my first recordings in my new studio setup. More to come soon—curious what you think!

My first BlueSky post! This is the last music video I recorded before moving from California to the Netherlands 9 months ago. Some new (and more radical) content will follow later this month!
