Started in 1999 and finished in 2007
this album is made of piano solo and
piano and orchestra piece. Most of
the songs are both in solo and
orchestra version. I wanted to made
an album where the technology is not
used to make weird sounds but rather
to created beautiful music. So
everything is done with computers as
usual, but no weird fx, no fancy
echoes and reverbs. Just a natural
and pure sound inspired by the
classical music. However the smart
musicians will notice that the piano
and orchestra is arranged as a rock
band, with a bass, pads, rhythm...
all is played with the piano,
that's why it is almost
impossible to play most of these
songs with anything else than a
computer. The best of the modern and
old times...
Heidelberg
Orchestral
- 5:45
Description :
First song made for Impossible Piano
back in 1999. Great mix of all
instruments and the piece I really
love the most in this album. It is
made with 3 different themes that
plug together. There is a mix of
uplifting and nostalgia that stick
after the music ends. It was made
first for piano and orchestra and I
lost the original master. I
re-created it in 2004 to finalize
this album.
For
Diana Orchestral
- 3:47
Description :
This song has been created the night
when I knew that she died in a car
accident. It was first made for the
album Dreamscape in general midi but
now re-created for orchestra and
piano. The next day, my ex-wife and
I went to the hospital do leave some
flowers in her memory.

Description :
Made shortly after Heidelberg this
song was also the reason I wanted to
do this piano and orchestra album.
It has a similar structure as
Heidelberg, with several themes
plugged together.
Aliens Orbital
Orchestral
- 2:54
Description :
What a strange name! This song was
created for Aliens CBA (check Alien
CBA album to listen the first
version made for General Midi sound
cards. I've re-arranged it for this
album to be played with piano and
orchestra.
Vero
Orchestral
- 11:53
Description :
Created in one night for Veronique
Lesciellour my girlfriend in 1992.
She is the only one to have an
original version, I gave her as a
gift (how romantic I was). She
dumped me 6 months after. The
original version was longer and had
2 songs included for more than 20
min of today improvisation. This
version has been simplified and
re-orchestrated.
Rain Fall

3:04
Description :
This song has been first created for
Helena and called 'Rigolade'
(laughter). I arranged it
differently for this album, I like
the theme and the melody. The Helena
version is very cool and uplifting!
Adagio Nuptial
Orchestral
- 4:09
Description :
This song has been created for my
weeding in 1994. I did several
versions. I lost the original that
was played in the church. It was a
very emotional moment. This song is
made to be used on these kind of
occasions, and there are not a lot
of choice for that. If you use it
for your weeding, please let me
know. This song is also a very sad
memory about Pascal de France a good
friend who died in the most weird
and tragic way, alone in his huge
castle, with a gas mask on the face.
One of the most intelligent person
I've ever met. He loved this song.
Nadrys was made for him too...

\'Wake up Now\' the justification of
the album\'s title. Try to play it
with a piano and 2 hands only :)
