There are times when music can manifest a mood of happiness,
perhaps reflection, or even sadness, this is one of the remarkable facets of a
musical composition, there is always something for everyone to delve into and
find solace or inspiration, here on this brand new single from composer Marc-André Pépin we have an arrangement that offers the listener a vast array of emotive
qualities, and this latest creation is called Confession.
In just short of 3 minutes Pépin’s piano narrative builds,
progresses, and then seems to change tone, mood and vibrancy, in a clever
concoction of reflective nuances, this is a veritable fluent voyage of timbre
mood and hope.
The steady repetitive presentation seem to dance from one
fascinating juxtaposition of feelings to another, in what for me is a sublime
performance on the piano by the artist, and this enquiring narrative moves ever
onward, repeating, retrying and presenting the listener with various different
musical suggestions, until we reach the conclusion which creates one of the
finest codas I have heard for years, just for a second it seems that hope has
won the day, but the last tones played may suggest a different outcome is
perhaps going to occur.
Confession by Marc-André Pépin is an enthralling ride of solo piano music that is
incredibly addictive and compelling, here is a new single that the genre of
solo piano will be all the better for, and given that aforementioned statement,
it’s also one that should reach a lofty
place in the charts too.
