"Pan-American Highway" is the first track on the Panama Piano album, and was released on July 10, 2020.
Recorded at the Peace Palace, Sedona, AZ on a Steinway B in the first two weeks of May 2020.
This album was the result of a two week road trip through the country of Panama. It was totally magical. It was inspiring and joyous. Hopefully you will hear it in the music. I approached this album in a similar way to Southwest Solo Piano, with one major difference. For Southwest Solo Piano, I would think about each of the places that we visited, and then improvise music based on those thoughts and feelings. With Panama Piano, I started with an improvisation after considering places and experiences, but instead of recording the improvisations, I would compose the pieces using the ideas and melodies that came up during the improvisation.
