My name is Jarno van Es, and I travel around the world, carrying only a backpack and a recording device. Along the way I play as many pianos as possible, by walking into hotels, bars, theaters, music schools and churches. I played pianos in parks, museums, public streets and living rooms of people I had never met before. I sit down and start improvising.
The recordings that you hear are registrations of these improvisations, raw and honest. What you hear is just me at the piano, and all the other noises present in that moment.
