Limited 180gm colored vinyl LP pressing. "Nocturnes: Music For 2 Pianos" was written during 2020 and 2021. There are 14 compositions, written mostly at night during lockdown. The decision to compose for two pianos gave me the ability to create more abstract compositions, blurring the melodies and harmonies to produce a diffused sound. Other Nocturnes are more pure and focus on delicate melodic fragments, revealing their compositional process as they develop. Each short piece should stand on its own; however, the atmosphere and intention of each movement work together as a whole. Writing the work, which was composed and recorded at home, was in a way therapeutic amidst the pandemic. I would like to think the beauty of the sound and reflectiveness of the music communicates and, in turn, perhaps might help the listener find some solace in these strange times. I wanted "Nocturnes" to be an acoustic album, playable by any two pianists who might want to perform them." - Craig Armstrong.
