About Dr Fred Cole
I've been writing and creating music my whole life in many different genres, starting in prog rock groups in the UK in the 70s, playing in funk and soul bands in the 80s after moving to Australia. In the 90s I strayed into Electronica and Trance, and then after 2000 I came back to Jazz and Acoustic Piano Improvisations. Check out my new site, where you can buy all my music - link

Thanks to all of you for your insightful reviews and warm words of encouragement. I'm working on a couple of new projects currently and will be posting some new material very soon.
Broke through the 1,000,000 plays barrier today.... Woohoo! :)
This solo piano piece explores the spaces within. The twists and turns that life constantly throws up. Uncertainties, unexpected harmonies, peaceful resolutions, and acceptance of what one has been given.
Please let me know if this track resonates with you.
