I share my piano improvisation recordings here as a journey in raw, musical self-expression, and I invite you to listen to these snapshots of my internal world; the technical notes are extras for those who wish to explore the music theory further.
This is an improvisation in a blues/jazz ballad style. I have called it Lydian Blueprint because it uses shades of the Lydian mode in certain sections (as chord-scale pairings), and it is based on a chord progression I came up with last night, which is the framework for my improvisation using blues melodies (hence the “blueprint”).

My regular piano improvisation recordings are automatically scheduled and published here on my blog every Monday, Wednesday, Friday and Sunday. Each recording is a raw, unedited exploration of musical self-expression. Music often holds up a mirror to our inner worlds; what emotions or imagery arise for you as you listen?
🐾 Music for a Cause: These recordings are free to listen to. I also use this creative space to support Cats Protection, the charity where I adopted my own lovely cats. If my music brought a moment of joy to you, and if you are able, please consider making a small, voluntary donation directly to them via my JustGiving Page, or you can just share this blog post with someone who might like the music. Please never feel any obligation to give — your ears, your time, and your shares are support enough. ❤️
