Justin Dale Music
|
Info I'm a classically-trained
keyboardist who began playing piano by ear at age 3. With formal lesson
starting at age 5, I participated regularly in competition, concert & seminar
throughout my young life. I've played in jazz ensembles, as church organist, a
vocal accompanist, a hired pianist and even lounge "piano man" for a stretch. Since the year 2000 I've been committed to growing as a composer / producer of
instrumental new-age music. I'm beyond busy with my profession at
this stage of life, which means music has to sit in the backseat on a fairly regular basis.
As any artist knows life
can be quite inconvenient. :) I will always enjoy music,
even if only for myself. It's in my blood! I have great
respect for anyone who has artistic passion, with a career in the balance.

Review
"While a lot of people in this world are getting more and more individual,
egocentric and less sensitive in contact with other people (God seems to be lost
somehow, somewhere), Justin Dale keeps up the good spirit of love, peace and
harmony. Not only by his wonderful personality, but also by his message to the
world: Beautiful instrumental spiritual easy- listening music, composed,
arranged and performed my Justin himself. His melodies are sparkling and
meaningful, his arrangements soft and touching. It stretches out like a long
soft feather, dancing in the wind; especially his absolute masterpiece “Knight
Skies of Pi”. It makes you wonder where this place is, where all the good in
this world seems to gather. If you ever hear Justin’s music, try not only to
listen, but also try to search for this place deep in your heart, and get it out
of the dark. Lets make this world a better place, and use Justin as our guide.
He knows the way...."

Video
This "music video" was made by my friend & coworker Matt. The
music is an excerpt from one of my live practice session recordings, playing on
the stereo as he held his daughter Megan in his arms. This was
a surprise, one night after a rough day at work.
The melody is my interpretation of "Home Again"...
one of my favorites, originally written by Rogier van Gaal.
