• Alexander Chapman Campbell

  Alexander lives in the Scottish Highlands. Composing at home, which sits amongst forested hills and beside a rushing river, he gains inspiration from the natural world around him. He has recently released his much awaited second collection for solo piano, ‘Portraits of Earth’, recorded at Crear house on the rugged West Coast of Scotland. The album, featuring new piano works that have been five years in the making, was recorded in a single take on the final morning of the sessions. 'This is the experience of playing that I look for, I revel in it for those brief and wonderful moments. The last piece came and then the final note. Those were the recordings I was looking for; I had just recorded the whole album in one run-through. The rest - everything I had done during the previous days - could be forgotten.' His music has been described as “not jazz, not classical, not improvised, but a glimpse of something new...”.
