This podcast is where I record myself practicing jazz piano, and post the recordings on the net.
From Geoff Peters' family home in 2011, listen to some ambient sounds of the celebrations as well as Geoff tinkling the Steinway ivories playing "The Christmas Song".

New Endings Old Beginnings is a tune I wrote while jamming with the amazing drummer Colin Defreitas. I perform it here, for its world recording premiere, as a solo piano rendition recorded on a late 1950's Steinway. It has an extended improvised intro and then a haunting main melody that starts about half way through. I'm putting in a few Chick Corea influenced lines which I really like.
