The Arlen Hartcast

At a time of seasonal shift, it can feel uncertain, what breeze will come, what storm will come. So today's piano improvisation was done completely with my eyes closed, embracing the unknown and following whatever may come.

An improvisation shored up by the humidity, the heat, and the outward feelings of summer time.

Spring, time of new growth and returning. Some new original pieces flowering between the improvisations

cold bright day in Brooklyn with fully improvised piano.

Piano, poems, and songs from windy snowy Brooklyn.

Took a couple months off, but I'm back! New episodes will be coming regularly again. Today's music began as an improvisation and evolved into a new piece that I've been working on, as well as some old pieces, "The Joy of Your Smile", "Jane" and others. Hope you enjoy!

A cool improvisation on a hot afternoon.
