about

You are listening to Shunya's debut album of solo piano pieces. Welcome! These secret chords and their ascendent sequences came through in various contexts including late night meanderings at home, and on the lovely woody piano that sits under the stairs at the Osho Leela retreat center in Dorset. Nothing like a conscious relating festival to produce rollercoastering emotions for the participants .. calmed by this humble figure seated at the piano of an evening, feeling into the spaciousness of what was meant to come through. The improvisations were captured on a discreet dictaphone and re-recorded over two nights on the Yamaha digital upright at Shunya's studio near Uki, New South Wales.
