Fantastic!  Takes me back to the 20th century in scope, grandeur, and angularity... I like it!

Long live the 20th century - I miss those days of yore.

Thanks for your kind comment! With these pieces my goal is not to mimic any past composers. Chopin purists will find many sections that Chopin would have done differently. Especially, in the middle section there is a bit of a hidden Russian soul. The more I worked on this composition the more it darkened ;-)

Did you have a chance to listen to the other pieces, too? They are rather different from "Charming Smile". Anyway, thanks for listening and let me know what you think of the other pieces.

The music is emotionally expressive, intense, interesting, virtuous, diverse. Each piece tries to tell a story.
The score can be downloaded (for free). Please see the video descriptions for links.

A very successful result at all levels. Realistically believable in terms of Chopinesque, and very enjoyable to listen to. A fascinating AI/human collaboration process.

For playback I used Pianoteq 6. The last piece uses Pianoteq 7.
For the piano I chose Steinway D with a few customizations. And I love it

Please let me know what you think.
