An Almost Cloudless Sky
Some days seem to stretch endlessly beneath a wide, open sky.
There is a quiet sense of possibility in those moments, when everything feels lighter, and the world seems to slow for a while.
Flowing piano figures and a gentle melody capture that feeling of space and stillness, evoking the simple beauty of a day spent beneath an expansive sky.
Behind the piece:
Released • May 1 2026
An Almost Cloudless Sky was inspired by those rare days when the sky is almost completely clear, with just a few clouds drifting across the blue. There is something wonderfully peaceful about that simplicity, and I wanted to capture that feeling in music.
The piece unfolds gently through flowing piano figures and a lyrical melody, creating a sense of openness and calm. The tonal centre shifts between C and F, with chromatic harmonies adding to the music’s fluid, almost dreamlike quality, like clouds drifting slowly across an otherwise open sky.
