In my opinion, the episodes are a bit too long. Shorter episodes would be more suitable. Nevertheless, I commend your work. It is indeed a remarkable piece, akin to a toccatta.
Dieses wunderbare Stück höre ich unheimlich gerne! Vielleicht schaffe ich es auch eines Tages so selbstverständlich und leicht zu spielen. Ich freue mich immer über die Schaffenskraft von David Hicken. Vielen herzlichen Dank für diese großartige Musik!
This is a really beautiful arrangement. It's perfect for the Advent and Christmas season.
I love the energy and feel to this piece! My students love listening to me practice it. I want to purchase all of his material, and I frequently play his YouTube videos to motivate my students. Right now our favorite is his organ rendition of Carol of the Bells. So fun to watch: 4 keyboards and pedals too! Love those Organmaster shoes closeups!
Incantation is a miracle that you want to listen to and perform endlessly. Thank you very much for the pleasure I received. Thank you also for the very user-friendly interface of your web-site.
This piece is very lively and full of harmonic passages. It's a pleasure to play and to listen to. I recommend this piece to every musician who wants something truly special to play.
As soon as I heard it, I fell in love with the somewhat deceptive simplicity of this tranquil composition. Thank you, Mr. Hicken.
This piece is both mesmerizing and exciting! I don't know how he manages to combine both of these seeming opposite feelings, but David is a genius! I highly recommend learning this piece. It isn't too difficult, and the reward is great.
Thank you David for another masterpiece!
I just bought this and it is just beautiful!
It's definitely "modern baroque"! Very approachable, short and sweet.
These are wonderful pieces. Some are trickier/aggressive than others, but they are wonderful pieces to play. I am just starting to practice these new books as I think they are fitting for dinner music, therapy music at our local hospital around the main entrance and dining areas. People really appreciate the tenderness and some uplifting scores from David that I play. Some i have already played in church. Great work David!!
Every piece is beautiful. They have a classical feel and well composed. Easy purchase and download. Want more!!
I love this piece. It gives a broken heart hope, and I'm sure would uplift anyone in a gentle baroque-esque embrace.
Thank you David.
I had to learn this piece well before rating. I love the melody and the changing pattern of the left hand. I especially love the ending as my favorite endings are always on the lower keys. Thank you for Swan Song.
So I have been trying to find good Christmas piece to play for many years, but haven’t found anything to satisfied, so I gave up long time ago. Then recently I really needed to find something to play for some occasion, and happened to found this Bell Carol in YouTube; Oh my goodness(!!), what an very exciting, very intelligent, very satisfying, very beautiful music!! I’m so thankful that I found this one; I’m practicing it everyday now. Thank you so much for making this music. I bought other Christmas book too, and sounds very interesting, I’m very looking forward to play thoes for this Christmas. (Also Bell Carol 2.0 too!)
This album is an exquisite listening pleasure and also makes you want to play these pieces yourself.
As a very big fan of David, I purchased quite a few pieces of music from him, (some of "the approachable "ones as I am just an intermediate piano player, used to play church organ...,) found "Delia" a very nice, sweet composition , not the easiest one(still working on it) but definitely one of my favourite. Thank you, David!!
A wonderful album full of testimonies of a truly inspirational, creative time - each piece is more beautiful than the next.The style of this music is timeless and thus destined for eternity. It will be a delight to play them all.
