Artist Biography |
|
|
|
From unique interpretations of well known standards and classics to never-before-heard musical flights of fancy, keyboardist Don Slepian shares an ingenious musical imagination that surprises and delights his audiences. From wellsprings of improvisation, familiar songs lead someplace new -- and new songs lead us back to someplace familiar. With magical technique and classical sensibilities on both piano and synthesizer, Slepian entices his audience to come along for an unforgettable sonic adventure. A significant solo artist on the digital sampling keyboard, his music is both exciting and comforting while blazing a trail in a new genre of computer music concert performance.
“... one of the genre's major talents...”
Rolling Stone Magazine
“His music is already at the level of sonic and musical integration which few achieve -- simultaneously stimulating and effervescent and soothing and profound”
“Hearts of Space” Music Guide
“Slepian offered a dazzling smorgasbord of computer sonorities -- all of them fascinating, some of them achingly beautiful. He is indisputably a master of his medium.”
The Newark Star Ledger
“Slepian is a leading practitioner of New Age music.”
