Composer and pianist Kenneth Kuhn, after finding the music he wanted to hear did not exist, strove to bring his own musical visions to life. The result, Piano Works of Kenneth Kuhn, is a cathartic journey through the memories and imagination of the composer. Romantic in quality, thematic, memorable, and deeply moving, Kuhn's latest work leaves listeners feeling enriched and enchanted. Kuhn's compositions arose from three main sources: dreams, memories, and spontaneity. In Prelude No. 3 in G-minor, the composer describes the free-flowing second section as having formed on it's own, stating "As if controlled by some external something I literally watched my hands play this without any thought in the process." 'An Alpine Song' formed from a dream of a young Bavarian woman singing and playing guitar in the Alps and what the composer could recall of her exotic melodies upon waking. In 'Ode to Memories,' the composer reminisces on his own past and it's ups and downs, from joyous school years to the sudden death of a dear friend. Sublime in nature and simultaneously tender and haunting, each memorable composition tells it's own story. Piano Works of Kenneth Kuhn bares the heart, mind, and soul of the composer in a beautiful, sentimental fashion. With it's emotional height and depth, nature-inspired melodies, and connection to the sublime, Kuhn's collection both moves and inspires listeners.
