music - strange land

This CD contains pieces of music that I originally created between 1990 and 1998. The first track was composed for a part of the show of an artistic comedy duo. As the song title tells the music was made for juggling, but the version on the CD is the "listening version", while there is also a slightly different "juggling version". Tracks 2 to 5, building the so called "mountain suite", were composed as music for a slide show about the Wallis (Switzerland). The basic structure of the title track of the CD, "strange land" originates from 1990, but the song was often changed and refined over the years. If there is something like a favourit within my own music then it is "strange land", besides "Lhanthan".

For this CD I have replaced the keyboard played drum tracks of the older pieces with new ones, played on drum pads.
