Peter Swart
VIEWS volume 1
A collection of 20 instrumental miniatures, ranging from merry tunes to atmospheric ambient melodies.
I wrote them during the first years of the life of my children. When evenings were too short and too often disturbed to concentrate on serious and conceptual compositions.
They were a joy to invent, a joy to perform, for the children a joy to listen to and even so for the elderly in an institution nearby. I would say: can be used in music therapy.
Peter Swart:
All compositions, keyboards.
