New album release "12 Celestial Bodies"
My new album, 12 Celestial Bodies, is a voyage through the cosmos, a map of imagination that stretches from the familiar to the fantastical. While science counts eight planets in our solar system, many of you still remember Pluto—and we all know life on Earth would be unimaginable without the Sun and Moon.
This album is a celestial odyssey, where each track becomes a stop on your journey. 12 Celestial Bodies is inviting you to lose yourself in a constellation of sound. Each track is more than music—it is an exploration, a voyage, an invitation to let your thoughts soar among the stars.
My special thank you goes again to Silent Beat Records for their support in bringing this beautiful album to life.

New Holiday EP: A Quiet Christmas
My piano solo holiday EP 'A Quiet Christmas' is released today. It immerses listeners in a serene, celebratory atmosphere, capturing the full essence of the Christmas season. Every note and melody carries a sense of festive anticipation, inviting reflection, harmony, and inner calm.
All four tracks reflect the EP’s festive spirit, guiding listeners through quiet winter nights and creating an intimate, peaceful holiday mood.
'A Quiet Christmas' is a statement of understated celebration: solo piano, pure in its intent, rich with the magic of the season. It is crafted for those seeking a harmonious and tranquil approach to the Holidays.
My special thank you goes again to Silent Beat Records for their support in bringing this EP to life. Also to YouTube Music for including 'A Christmas Tale" in their huge 'Solo Piano Christmas' playlist
