Trinity - The Climb (Classical Piano Vocal Mix - feat. Pianist Cherie)

It took me about 8 months to produced this classical piano version. I had the idea to re-arrange the song since July, finding the pianist that believe my idea, and fit my limited time on recording the piano track. First, I add click from Trinity's old vocal and then get the pianist to record a dummy piano version. After many days of refinement, I set 3 microphone to record the piano from Cherie's Grand Piano. Next, I bring the piano tracks back to the studio to record Trinity's vocal. On the video, honestly, this is not a very good video production. On the filming day, there are lots of limitation on the place, time and people. First, this is the only place i can find that is spacious and clean with high ceiling. However, due to some reason, I can only have a very limit of hours for the filiming. Second, due to the location limitation, I can not bring my full team with all our equipment for filming. Third, Trinity was not in a very good condition for filming, the pianist didn't practice well enough. Fortunately, I can still have the video filmed. Therefore, it took me a long time on balancing the color of all footages. note: the classical instrumental version is available on itunes store (except US) you can also visit www.trinitywong.com for Trinity's fans page.

"Rain" Slow Passionate Classical Piano By Smooth Jazz Pianist John Coleman

This "Rain" song recording is the first time it was ever played. It was not written on paper first, it is spontaneous, unrehearsed, unedited and straight from my heart. What you hear, is exactly as it was that rainy night earlier this year when I sat down at my piano and hit the record button. It's not on any cd's of mine or anywhere else for sale; I would hope others would just listen to it, and feel the same way I do when I hear it; peace & serenity. It is not typical of my smooth jazz style, it's just simply an expression of my heart and how I felt that rainy night. Written and Performed by Pianist John Coleman. Copyright 2010 John Coleman. ® ASCAP
