In this concert, the ten year anniversary of his "Hard Listening" project, Mitch Hampton attempts to create a style of performance in which he performs his original compositions for solo piano interspersed with a talk about his experiences and philosophies over time. This is also our first episode of Season 6 and we thought this a great way to celebrate how far we have come, all our many special guests over the year and all that is to come in Season 6! More on this very special event, here: “This year marks the tenth anniversary of the debut of my "Hard Listening" solo piano project. Thus far I have released two "albums", with Volume 2 in 2016 being a digital only release. To put it as briefly as I can here, the concept and project involves the extensive usage of a wide spectrum of popular musical languages of the 20th century but in a context of an improvisational as well as compositional solo piano style - intended for the recital or concert stage. In this performance I will perform one newer work in two movements but with the addition of a personal and informal "lecture" in which I talk further about some of the experiences and ideas that brought me to develop "Hard Listening”.
