Six Weeks

Today's #TimNeumarkFullCatalog track is #5 from my third album, Influence.

The song is "Six Weeks"; it was written about the death of both of my wife's paternal grandparents, six weeks apart. Sort of reminds me of the lyrics from "The Luckiest" by Ben Folds.

Improv in G-Sharp Major (Isolation)

Today's #TimNeumarkFullCatalog track is #18 from my 9th album, 24 Improvs.

The song is "Improv in G-Sharp Minor (Isolation)"; its subtitle comes from the distant sounds in the middle of the song. There's a hint of Rachmaninoff's 2nd Piano Concerto in the middle...

Relax: E-Flat Major

Today's #TimNeumarkFullCatalog track is #8 from my tenth album, Relax.

The song is "Relax: E-Flat Major" and like the rest of the songs on this album, there's no story. This one definitely sounds like it belongs in a spa's music rotation.

Twilight

Today's #TimNeumarkFullCatalog track #4 from my debut album, Biography.

The song is "Twilight": it has been one of my top tracks since its release! This track subtly borrows a bit of an Antonin Dvorak melody; I believe it is my first track where I did that.

Here's more information about my album Evolution, which is my first "proper album release" in 10 years.

You may not know what the titles mean, but I think you'll feel the emotion. There are a couple places in the album where a listener might be moved to tears.
