James Dever: (Bandcamp about blurb)
Icarus is a piano solo commissioned by Colin Stanfill. A brief but powerful piece, it features changing mixed meter passages and fast technical melodies.
Icarus is the first of a few commissions from my summer donation drive to get this new computer. It was commissioned by forumgoer and fellow Homestuck Colin “Geekthras” Stanfill. He was one of many who really helped me out when I was in a very bad place over the summer and this is my way of showing gratitude!
Icarus is a solo piano work that is reflective of the old Greek myth about flight. It features some of my favorite things: fast tempos, mixed meter, and dorian modes! I had a fantastic time writing this and it has quickly grown to be one of my most favorite tracks I’ve ever written!
This is the first full length piece from my upcoming collection of compositions album I plan on releasing! Stay tuned for some more little pieces of it as it gets closer! I plan on releasing it before the end of the year!
Thanks for listening.
