about

ABOUT THIS ALBUM:
“Sketches” is a fully improvised solo piano album. Several of the songs were completely improvised during the recording process for this album and several were inspired by my “Monday Morning Improvisations” series on YouTube. This was a very challenging album project for me and it was a lot of fun improvising and writing songs on the fly for this album. It was also fun to relearn some of the previous improvisations and let those evolve during recording. I hope you enjoy the music on this album as it comes from my inner well of creativity and straight from the heart.

My “Monday Morning Improvisations” series is a collection of improvs that are recorded “first try, first take”, where I record and release an improvisation on the spot every week. The entire collection of “Monday Morning Improvisations” can be found on the Michele McLaughlin YouTube channel.
