Lucciola

When I score films I will often treat or prepare my Steinway with different
 types of fabric, felt or other items to give the piano a darker, more
 harmonically complex and intimate sound. It also exposes the sound of 
the inner workings of the instrument and illuminates the sound of the
 moving wood, felt and metal. I have decided to release some pieces that I 
have written using these techniques, which take the listener on a warm
 and intimate journey.

Lucciola translates to Firefly from Italian, They are beautiful and bring such a
 brilliant colorful energy to our world. I hope this piece I wrote and
 recorded on my 1928 Steinway B prepared with fabric and felt brings you a 
sense of both energy and gentleness.
