| | Amy K Reflections CD (2002)
In Recital
$17.09
Depicting stories and feelings we have all experienced in life, this music can help soothe the listener and relieve them of the stresses of daily life. A relaxing compilation of guitars and voices, this CD is a must for listeners of any genre of music. Listen to the audio samples and read their accompanying insights below."Reflections": When I wrote the title track "Reflections", I was in a very contemplative, melancholy mood. I was thinking about where I was in life at that time, what the past had brought, and the uncertainty of what the future might hold. I was hoping it would be successful, hoping things would be better. As you listen to it, take the time to reflect on your own life."03699": This song is about lost love. 03699 represents the date that I met a man I once loved. Truly love at first sight, our romance was cut short as he was from Belgium and had to return to Europe. As you listen, remember the longing for your own lost love..."Spanish Theme": A song of celebration with a traditional Spanish, flamenco flare. Celebration and somber melancholy."Scarborough Faire": A timeless folk melody reflecting a simpler, better time.Reflections has been described as "contemplative", "well-composed", and "beautiful." The music really mirrors Amy's introspective personality. The album has earned the laud of respected musicians such as Turning Point's John Herrera. "She's a fine talent," he says. " The record is thought and mood provoking."Steve Thomas, owner of a music venue in Undici Undici in Mesa, AZ, says, "Amy is so talented. When she plays, people listen. Her music is very evocative." Amy K - BiographyA true musician such as AmyK can be difficult to find...her music will move you.In her songs are feelings that everyone experiences at some point in their lives: loneliness, despair, joy, and love are all the constituents of her latest CD, aptly titled Reflections. The album's theme illustrates how music directly mirrors life. "Music captures emotional moments in time, like an audio photograph. Listening to a song on the radio, or writing one on your guitar, it is that feeling, that very moment that is captured. When you listen to that song again, it takes you back... to that same nostalgic feeling."An avid composer, the album consists exclusively of Amy's original compositions and arrangements. She has to date completed more than 32 works for solo and ensemble settings, on classical guitar ...

A Rising StarIn 2002 Adam won the Vienna Classics Prize (Wiener-Klassik-Preis) with his outstanding interpretation of Haydn's Sonata in G major (No. 54). In 2003 he won the Special Prize at the San Remo International Piano Competition, and in 2004 he won all prizes (First Prize, Grand Prize and Special Prize) at the First International Chopin Piano Competition in Budapest. That same year, CNN World Report identified him as a"rising star." In 2005 Adam was invited to the Steinway Artist community, a signal honor that places him in the company of the greatest pianists of all time, including Vladimir Horowitz, Artur Rubinstein, Krystian Zimmerman.He continues to tour the world, delighting audiences in Europe and Southeast Asia with his virtuosity, his charm, and his improvisations on well-known melodies, all of which invite comparisons to the incomparable Franz Liszt.StudiesAdam was accepted to the Bela Bartok Conservatory as a prodigy in 1994, at the age of 12. He flourished under the tutelage of his pianoteacher, Katalin Halmagyi, who continues to be his mentor and a key member of his creative team. In 1998 he won the National Youth Piano Competition, and two years later won Hungary's Pianist 2000 award at the age of 18. He was accepted at the Franz Liszt Academy of Music in Budapest in 2000 and studied under Professors Gyorgy Nador and Balazs Reti. He graduated in 2006 and is currently doing his doctoral studies at the Liszt Academy with a state scholarship.The storyWhen Adam was a young boy, he drew everything upside down. His worried parents took him to a doctor. The doctor decided there was something wrong with him, but was unable to diagnose the problem. His father, who was determined to understand why his son was different, watched Adam carefully.One day he sat opposite Adam and asked him to draw a house. As the house began to take shape, Adam's father realized that although his son was drawing the house upside-down, he was able to see it right side up. At that moment he realized that Adam was drawing everything in a way that best displayed his drawing to the viewer. This ability to see things from a different perspective was proof of Adam's natural inclination to perform, and revealed a thoughtful regard for how best to communicate with his audience. Today, Adam communicates through his music in the same way as he drew as a child; with the understanding that the audience, the listener, ...
