Alex Grant: News

I love the fact that instrumental music communicates to all of us on earth since language is not involved. We all share being moved by a painting, some music or a dance, and it is often difficult to verbalize how or why we are affected. But the emotions we experience are real nonetheless. In my writing, there are sometimes ideas before the actual creating, but just as often, I don't realize what the piece really says until afterwards. What the artist feels may be different than what a listener or observer would describe. I think this is a testament to the multiple layers of life that good art captures. But I am most interested in how you, wherever you might be in the world, are affected by music and art, so please stop by and leave your thoughts and ideas in the guestbook!

Some wonderful new photos from photographer/designer Monique Meadows are now on the site, from a photo shoot for the new CD. Check out the front page; also, the bio and contact pages. The image above is a beautiful piece showing a phenomenon called "Sea Smoke".

I just posted some of the pictures from the trip to Maine, which my wife Susie took. We went there so my photographer and designer, Monique Meadows, could shoot the photos for the new album "Red Skies At Night".

I just got back from a trip to Maine for the photo shoot for the new CD "Red Skies At Night". This album will be a collection of solo piano pieces all about the ocean, and is due out in 2009. More news to come!

I performed on the Denver NBC affiliate, 9News, on the "Peacock Cafe" segment on Sunday morning, July 6th. I played "Falling In", from "Evening's Last Light"; "Ballerina" from "Metaphor" and "Old Father Road" and "The Waterfall" from the "Old Father Road" album. Stay tune for news of my new solo piano album, "Red Skies At Night", coming soon!
