Timothy Cooper - East Wind

EAST WIND

Timothy Cooper
New Piano Age Music
2008

Lovers of solo piano music can gorge themselves on this musical feast. Thirty compositions inspired by Timothy's voyages to Asia.

Timothy says, "I used the title East Wind as a poetic metaphor for the winds of change blowing from the Far East, bringing with them new sensibilities, an influx of trade and seismic global power shifts".

Short to long pieces, light and playful to 'heavy', there's enough diversity here to please the listeners and keep them occupied for a good hour of just enjoying the music.
