Program Notes
A solo piano ballad exploring the intersection of modernist classical composition and improvisational jazz.
“It is not a tear” is a distinctive piano piece that showcases my unique style, drawing inspiration from jazz. This work was composed at the request of the renowned maestro Massimiliano Valenti.
Valenti’s interest in my music led to a personal meeting in Israel, where we discussed the intricacies of the piece. His enthusiasm for the composition fueled my creative process, resulting in a work that is both challenging and rewarding for pianists.
A tender ballad of nascent love, “It is not a tear” weaves a tapestry of emotions, from the initial spark of attraction to the profound depths of connection. The piece serves as a musical ode to the miracle of life, as it captures the anticipation and wonder of bringing a new soul into the world.
This piece invites listeners to embark on a musical journey, exploring the interplay of classical and jazz elements. The intricate harmonies, rhythmic nuances, and expressive melodies create a captivating listening experience.
“It is not a tear” offers a rewarding musical challenge.
