The Mirror, Opaque

My second album, The Mirror, Opaque, is an instrumental solo piano album, improvised in a single studio session in March of 2025.

Fatherhood was inevitably the subject of The Mirror, Opaque. For, an artist draws upon their own experience for creative expression, and my experience since 2021 has been one of total immersion in fatherhood. How is piano improvisation about fatherhood? I am glad you asked, because the creative process through which I came to recognize my own experience through my raw and unrehearsed recordings from March 2025 is what I find to be the most interesting aspect of this album, and why I am proud of it. You can read that story here.
