Muchas gracias por escuchar y mirar. Agradezco que mi música sea una bendición para ti. Gracia y paz, Stanton

Wow, thank you! This is amazing to hear and I am so grateful "Bread of Angels" is such a blessing to you. It is a favorite of mine too. I memorized Chopin's Nocturne in E flat as teenager and loved playing that piece. Transcendent, timeless melodies warm the heart in a special way, and this is my hope as I compose.

Muito obrigado por ouvir e curtir este vídeo também. As bênçãos de Deus para você! -Stanton

Wonderful Kathleen, I am grateful you can enjoy playing this piece on your piano. This "tree house" style viewing platform in the western North Carolina national forest was the perfect setting for Breathe. God bless you! - Stanton

Hi Jeremy, I am so glad you love this piece. The orchestration was performed by guest artists during the original recording sessions featuring cello, English horn, flugel horn, and angelic vocals. Blessings to you! - Stanton

You're welcome Anthony, and thank you so much for watching and listening! God's blessings to you, Stanton

Hi @KSguitarmusic, thanks so much. I would describe the sustain pedal as generously used, and held down for several measures where the arpeggiated left hand chords are consistent for a stretch and can ring together. There are plenty of times when the sustain pedal is lifted and then held back down, as I was just feeling the sounds of the chords and melodies symbolizing the ocean. Wishing you God's grace and peace, Stanton

@@StantonLanier hey I just bought it and printed it out and I’m going to take it to my music lesson tomorrow. Thanks for making it so easy to download on your website. I am almost 60 years old and started taking piano lessons 7 years ago and it is the best therapy!

Dear @stradman2490, thank you for your encouraging and inspiring words, and you're welcome for this Scripture inspired piece of music (Psalm 78:25). I am so glad you love this piece. God's blessings to you! - Stanton

Dear Anthony, I am so glad this song brings you beauty and joy! Thank you for your comments, and may the Lord bless you with His peace and hope today, Stanton

Thank YOU Mr. Lanier! And may God bless you keep your light shining for a long time to come! P.S., I also think this is what the angels listen to on their coffee break!

You are so welcome @falsearrow4502, I am grateful my music brings you beauty and wonder, and that it is a blessing in your life. Grace and Peace, Stanton

Dear @MarkdotBirdwolf, you are welcome, and I am grateful my music is such a blessing to you. I wasn't aware of this resemblance, but I have been very inspired by C.S. Lewis as well. The Lord inspired me to compose Scripture inspired piano and instrumental music twenty-three years ago. My very first composition was titled "Grace and Truth" from John 1:14, and now there are about 170 works. "Open Spaces" is special to me because the music is expressing the wonder and adventure of walking with God found in Psalm 119:45, "And I’ll stride freely through wide open spaces as I look for your truth and your wisdom..." Wishing you God's grace, peace, and joy today! - Stanton

@stradman2490 Thank you for your encouraging words, and I am grateful this song lifts your soul in worship. Wishing you God's grace and peace, Stanton

@stradman2490 Amen, thank you for listening and watching. I am so glad this is uplifting for you, brings you beauty, and makes you want to play piano again. God's blessings to you, Stanton

@marythomas254 Thank you Mary, I am so glad you love this song, and wish you continued blessings of God's peace, hope, and beauty. Blessings, Stanton

Thank you so much for listening and watching, and I am grateful this music and video are such a blessing to you! Wishing you God's grace and peace, Stanton

Thank you Keith, yes, I love this piece too! The French horn piano duet was to symbolize the whales singing with the ocean waves rippling. Blessings to you! Stanton

Just sent you an email about this piece @@StantonLanier

Hi Renee, thank you so much for watching and listening as I shared why and how I composed "Awaken the Dawn," along with other pieces in this video series. I'm so glad you are still enjoying! This song is one of my all-time favorites too. God's blessings to you! - Stanton

🥰🥰🥰

You are so welcome, and I am grateful this brought you beauty and peace. God's peace and blessings to you, Stanton

Thank you very much. I am grateful and honored my music continues to be a blessing to you and that you enjoy playing it and sharing it. I compose by ear and use a variety of key signatures. Sometimes good things happen in the keys with lots of flats, and I have to follow the creative path. Thanks for your grace in this. God's blessings to you! - Stanton

Great and interesting thoughts on your compositional process! Indeed we have to go with what seems to be the creative path and see where it takes us. I was wondering if you by any chance have the french horn music for Singing in the Ocean Deeps? I've never learned that piece yet but recently starting looking at it and it'd be awesome to perform it with a horn player. @@StantonLanier

Did you ever hear this piece before? First time I heard it figured it had to be one of yours! Such a similar style and feeling. czcams.com/video/4VR-6AS0-l4/video.html@@StantonLanier

Hi Keith, I don't have the French horn sheet music for Singing in the Ocean Deeps, but there are not a lot of notes, and a horn player would be able to find their part to accompany you. I hope this comes together for you! - Stanton

Yes, I have heard this piece. Ludovico Einaudi is a very popular and well known pianist from Italy, known for his minimalism, and beautiful melodies. Blessings! - Stanton
