1914 "The Christmas Truce"

The Christmas Truce (German: Weihnachtsfrieden; French: Trêve de Noël) was a unique moment when both English and German soldiers briefly called a truce to celebrate Christmas together. There was singing, prisoner swaps, and seasonal greetings while the men exchanged food and souvenirs in the brief lull during the early part of the war. A brief and memorable moment of peace that celebrated the birth of Jesus Christ with two countries that shared religious beliefs even in the m

"Dream Aria" for Piano and Soprano

In the tradition of Villa Lobos's Bachianas Brasileiras and the Bach/Siloti Prelude in B Minor, I find myself drawn to the writing of J.S. Bach from time to time. The Baroque treatment of counterpoint serves to remind us of the beauty of formal structures that are designed to enhance the natural beauty of simple harmonic practices in the purest form. With the addition of the voice, the music becomes striking in a delicate yet powerful way. My "Dream Aria" presents nothing ne

"Catherine's Violin"

This work was one of two works commissioned by the Carter Albrecht Foundation a number of years ago. It was originally written as a work for chamber orchestra and was not the work finally chosen for the commission. I never really felt that it worked as a piano solo so it sat for years with no real direction. As I was finishing the final folio to a piano collection, at the last minute I decided to revisit the work and rewrite it as a piano solo. It has now become one of my mos

Pagodas

Pagodas - Early Intermediate piano solo by Timothy Brown - This delightfully impressionistic piece has a westernized sound that retains a hint of the East. Its flowing passages are quick to learn and easily accessible. Pairs of eighths alternate between the hands in arpeggiated runs. Sustained whole notes guide the occasional harmonic movement. FJH W9160 Dr. Alan Huckleberry, piano The University of Iowa Piano Pedagogy Video Recording Project IMTA Level A FJH, 2004 This work

MusiQuest 2017, Pune, India

My time as an adjudicator for the National Piano Competition in India (MusiQuest 2017) has been a very special opportunity to make many new friends both from India and the visiting United States jury members. As I listened to so many of the performances over the last week of judging, I was reminded of the "universal language" that we all share, the language of music. The joy of listening to a number of living American composer's works being performed over the last week was bo

"Toccatina" for piano solo

My piano solo "Toccatina" was commissioned by Linda Kennedy from Maumelle, Arkansas as part of her continuing commissioning project that has helped to create an outstanding body of work by many talented American composers. This work had the honor of being the very first work commissioned by her outstanding program. Toccatina was written during my time as a magnet school teacher in the Dallas Public Schools. This time began my many patterned pieces that were the building block

"Daydreaming" from the Festival Collection (Book Four) edited by Helen Marlais

"Daydreaming" performed by Mi Won Brown This two page solo is one of my most performed works for the piano. It has a uniqueness to the melodic line that is very "elusive" as far as a definition. It represents my genre of "Fairy-tales for the piano that also includes my Crimson Rhapsody.Once Upon a Time, Serenade and Soliloquy. Beauty in form and balance that lingers in the listener's imagination. Timothy Brown, Shigeru Kawai Artist #TimothyBrownMusic #TimothyBrownPiano #Timo

"Soliloquy" for piano solo
