I've composed tunes on piano (or guitar) almost as long as I've played - and it's great fun.
Since writing more recently, I thought it would be good to have a page for it.
The challenge: to compose a different tune in a different key each day, with a mixture of moods and exploring darkness and light . . .
Piano for the Young at Heart was released, featuring 31 pieces from the previous 4 collections (Daily Tunes, What do you wonder?, Hebridean Holiday and Feathered Friends) - read more here.
Feathered Friends, then Hebridean Holiday - two collections of piano music inspired by birds and a trip to the Outer Hebrides - see the music page for PDFs.
This series of piano pieces was based on a variety of interesting questions, like "Where does the sun go to bed?" or "When did you last look off into the distance?" - see the music page for PDFs.
I took up the challenge to compose a tune in every key throughout January - see Exhibition Pieces for all the music.
There's also a FUN PAGE explaining how they were created.
I've added a new page to help inspire composing and improvising - it randomly provides a key and mood . . .
Preparing for a new album, writing a new song each day as I walk our dogs at the park :)

On a Monday morning in May, an idea for a wee tune came to me - so I wrote it down in a spare few minutes.
This inspired me to have a go at writing one every day of the week (nearly) - see below.
These little sketches will help inspire me to write more new pieces of music - and maybe inspire you too :)
