This album used a different approach to piano composition using layered recordings of an upright piano, which Greenaway ‘prepared’ with various fabrics and materials. All of the sounds on the album, from delicate sustains to unusual percussive timbres, are derived directly from the piano. The experimental nature of the modified instrument along with the intimacy of the recording has resulted in a particularly distinctive work. The listener is drawn gently into the world of Woven and spirited away on a remarkable journey; “Performing the pieces live will be a challenge, but one I am looking forward to immensely”, Greenaway states. The premiere of ‘woven’ was given at a packed Lauderdale House in Highgate, London.listen nowWorld Of Hans Zimmer LiveUnder the direction of Gavin Greenaway.
