The Keynote by Sylvia Villa

The Keynote is a collection of seven pieces, each inspired by an assortment of curiosities: a painting, a gown, a bird, old photographs and so on… They all sit side by side to create a mini musical library full of whimsical melodies and rippling emotions, that glimmer off the keys of one of the most beloved instruments… The Piano.

Sylvia Villa is a British composer, pianist and graduate from the Royal Welsh College of Music and Drama, having studied both acoustic and electronic music composition. Her music has a rather ethereal, delicate and innocent quality that is frequently twisted by moments that are eerie, macabre and haunting.
