listened to your selections on MySpace and my favorites are Gaia,
Companion ( because I like this kind of intimate, beguiling, jazzy music)
and Victoria. Gaia and Victoria have a nice way of music unfolding in
time, and especially in Gaia, with some surprising moves. Yes, I can hear
Satie hints in Victoria...

I went through your CD yet again this morning. Lovely music there! I am particularly fond of gaia-noon, sometime after 1am and atlantic sonata. Gaia-noon represents your control of "time" for drama and variety for interest and, yes, I like the special places of counterpoint; certainly not academic, but just wonderfully flowing and clear. Nice jazz in "sometime". I would say that John Zielinski did quite well by you. All in all it's a wonderful CD. Congratulations.

For years I had considered original piano music a "dead cause" but Canary has thankfully revived my interest as I listened to excerpts from this lovely CD, full of contrast, a symbol of how new music can still be created on a traditional instrument, echoing the past styles of Chopin, Scriabin maybe, a little Menotti and Liszt and "Les cinques" French composers; definitely the American Jazz idiom incorporated in Canary's style adds a great touch with its original rhythms and harmonies. So I thank Canary very much for having resuscitated my interest in contemporary piano compositions that DON'T need to have the strings pulled out from the piano's harp in order to be considered "new music".
