A Snowflake Kissed Your Cheek play

In the silence of the snowfall, a single streetlamp casts a pool of light which seems to freeze the flakes in mid-fall;a young child swirls and turns in the spotlight like a clumsy ballerina in slow motion, arms outstretched, trying to catch a tumbling snowflake on the tip of her tongue. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

Dreamwing play

Above the rippling, lapping ocean waves, a sea bird gently glides in ever increasing circles upwards, ever upwards, riding the thermal that will take her home ... 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

La Tendresse play

A piano piece to help you unwind. Lean your head against the music and let it soothe away the strains and cares of this tiring, troubled world. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

John's Song play

This duet for piano and cello is an elegy for my father. He always said he never wanted to be old. He got his wish. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

A Fond Farewell play

A nostalgic evocation of that mixture of tenderness and regret which accompanies every parting from someone or somewhere you love ... 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

Joy of Love play

Sunlight sparkling off the crystal fountains, the faint whiff of jazz in the air, the bounce in your footsteps, the tang of Spring. It's that softness in her eyes that sets your heart soaring ... 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

Francoise play

She's funny, she's pretty, she's wise and impulsive. She's generous, she's witty and she is as tender as the buds in May. This tune's for her. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

Standing On the Edge of the Universe play

Staring over the rim of the world, poised over the void, sometimes wondering what keeps us all from falling .... 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

Roses on Piano
  
It must be Love play

After a symphonic opening, this piece evolves into a lovely, lilting melody which is traded between piano and strings. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

The Still Centre play

The birdsong in the park, the roar of city traffic, the flutter of your heartbeat - they're all symptoms of life's eternal longing for itself. Chill out. Relax. Become the still centre of your turning world. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

Eclipse play

This orchestral piece conjures up all the drama of a solar eclipse - the hush before the blackout, the eerie calm of darkness in the middle of the day, and then the triumphant re-emergence of that distant sphere on whom our fragile lives depend. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

Monte Alban play

A dreamy piece for flute and synthesiser, which evokes the spiritual calm of the high temple-strewn plateau in Mexico of the same name. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

Candlelight play

The flickering flame shapes a cocoon of soft light, into which we weave our dreams.
An orchestral and choral piece which gradually builds to an inspirational climax. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre

Somewhere Out There play

... there is a star with your name on it. 
 From the album:  The Still Centre
