Description

" This piano music reflects a spectrum of feelings arising out of a choice for inner peace. Richard

Liner Notes:
In 1985 a healer I was working with suggested I do a solo piano album. Through a series of events and synchronicities this became my first spontaneously created album, dedicated to and entitled, World Peace. This was the beginning of two decades of work focussing on music created with conscious intent for peace, healing and Divine connection.


Out of this intent has grown a type of concert/presentation Ive come to call Music of Peace concerts. During one of these concerts at the United Research Light Center in Black Mountain, NC, a member of the audience expressed a wish that the music she was hearing be recorded. It dawned on me that the Light Center would be a perfect place to record a Music of Peace album, with its concert grand piano, geodesic dome, and a twenty-five year history of sponsoring prayers for peace. So we scheduled three days for me to record both in concert and by myself. The music contained on this album is gleaned from these days, and expresses a peace which is alive and passionate not a peace just from the absence of war, but a peace which embraces all in an accepting love.


All of the music, except Remembrance and the World Peace Theme, was spontaneously composed or improvised in the moment, although there were a few ideas which I focussed on for a few takes until I felt good about the performances.

May the Peace within each one of us expand in love, embracing and blessing the world. Richard
