Amygdala Nocturnes (for left / right hand alone and for 2 hands)

This series contains a series of difficult Nocturnes (in A Minor, A Flat Minor and A Sharp Minor) in 3 variations:

for the right hand alone - for the left hand alone - and for 2 hands !

The "Amygdala" is part of the limbic system in our brains, that controls about 90% of our memory, decision-making and emotional reactions.

The Amygdala never sleeps .... and never forgets! (See also: https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Amygdala)

These one-hand piano pieces were developed as a compositional and pianistical challenge, but especially I had persons in mind, that only have one arm or one hand, due to a disability or an accident, and who still would like to play interesting neoclassical piano music. I am welcoming all pianists, especially those with a disability, to send me their recordings!

Please also have a look at my other piano series for one hand alone:

6 Elegies for one hand alone in B Minor

6 Nocturnes-Etudes for one hand alone in C Minor
