chromaticism: notes from the chromatic scale used to create more emotion and a greater sense of tension in a piece of music. By using tones that are not "supposed" to be in a certain key, composers are able to create stronger and more effective dissonances and variations in the music. Exaggerated dissonance creates more tension, which in turn fosters a greater sense of relief when the music arrives at a moment of resolution. Alternatively, this moment can be delayed using chromatic harmonies, so that the listener is constantly waiting for resolution.

CD release party

The album has arrived!

Beautiful Illusions is now in my hands.
Does it ever feel good.

I can't even begin to describe the satisfaction of knowing that this major undertaking has been successfully completed. It's a huge check mark off the bucket list, and I cannot wait to share it with those near and dear to me who have supported me through so much...not to mention all those not-so-near-and-dear-as-yet who will hopefully be on board.

The CD release party is scheduled for Wednesday May 18th in the Lounge at The Drake Hotel, an all-night private party completely sponsored by my former company.

Please come!
