Two Breaks is an album entirely made up of solo piano works. All of the pieces were written and recorded over Thanksgiving and Christmas breaks. I recorded the album myself, mixed it in an all-analogue studio, and had copies made professionally through Nationwide CD.
The music on this album ranges from laid-back pieces to jazzy improv works. In each piece I try to capture excitement and emotion with rhythm and interesting lines.
Many of the songs were written for others. Track four, "For Your Heart", was written to heal the heart of a friend who was supposed to go in for surgery to fix a bad valve. Track eight was written for another friend who complained to me that I never wrote anything for her. The last track on the album is a bar-fight style song based on a piece a good friend of mine played during a meal at college.

Get this one!

This music is very relaxing. I play it when I'm doing interviews with my clients and find it really helps the mood. Speaking of mood, Autumn Mood is a beautiful peace, easily the best on this album. Very classical and almost Debussy in quality.

Great CD

I really enjoy this CD! It's creative but also very easy to listen to. Josh is so talented. My very favorite is track 4, but I thought all the songs were delightful and really showcase his incredible talent. Keep up the good work!
