Ariana by Pete Lorenz – Released February 25

“Melodies flow like the water! This composition strikes the listener in the heart. Great! Great! Great! All emotions were transferred to the listener. Here is the emotional intensity, expressiveness and fluency I was looking for! This composition can be listened to over and over again, this is a great production! Congratulations!” – Kiraz Müzik

“the thing that always leaves me very pleasantly impressed is the immediacy of your music. The kind of writing that always has this ability to immediately get you in the mood and always convey strong emotions. This track also has the characteristic of having a very clear and, above all, catchy melodicism. The use of harmony, as always, is also very well thought out and through the use of revolutions, you manage to increase the emotional tension. Excellent track!” – The Hand Editions

“[I]nterpreted with great sensitivity on the piano. Each note of this piece is imbued with a soft melancholy. A soothing track that seems to slow down time, if only momentarily.” – Boulimique de Musique

Ariana is my latest release for neoclassical solo piano. I was inspired by the portrait of the fantasy character depicted in the cover art, who is the namesake of the song. Like the main character, the quiet, silky smooth tone of the piano evokes a mystical and magical world in the lush forests of the imagination.
