Emergence is an 8 track journey into the self. Calming piano, nature sounds, and occasional synth strings calm the mind and invoke the senses. Calming at times while designed to awaken emotions and states that may reside in the unconsciousness of the listener. Take the dive and allow what is ready inside to emerge with Emergence.

I released the piano solo version of Solitude in December of 2021. I fell in love with the haunting and melancholy atmosphere of this track when I recorded it but also knew I wanted to add some other elements for an ambient version of this track. I added birdsong to add a bit of playful inspiration while the high string-like descant adds to the ethereal quality of this track. I think this version is simply magical.

Ancestral Blessing is a lilting mix of the Celtic songs, Down by the Salley Gardens and Irish Washerwoman. This recording was performed live awhile back in Chicago during a Celtic show I was playing for. I plan on including this track in my upcoming album, Emergence. Cover Art - Stefan Keller at Pixabay.

Solitude

Claire Bigley

In cart Not available Out of stock

This song came through me as a very meditative and deeply introspective musical feeling. The soft, at times, lightly percussive timbre of the finger pressing the keys in places, just seems to emphasize the loneliness of the feel. The atmosphere of this track is intended to epitomize winter. The quiet, stark, and sometimes harshness we experience

Souljourn

Claire Bigley

Souljourn, via the urban dictionary, defines as....A journey to one's soul. Unlike a 'Sojourn' it is a life long process bridging Body, Mind and Soul.
Well, I think we all have been on quite a souljourn. The Pandemic, weather events, and trauma induced living is providing quite the environmental soup for our growth and journey back to soulful

Souljourn, via the urban dictionary, defines as....A journey to one's soul. Unlike a 'Sojourn' it is a life long process bridging Body, Mind and Soul.
Well, I think we all have been on quite a souljourn. The Pandemic, weather events, and trauma induced living is providing quite the environmental soup for our growth and journey back to soulful community.
This recording is a bit of a departure from my typical piano-led fare. I started with the sound of the rain and was so lead to want to pair it with the sound of a cello. Found a sound I liked on my keyboard, recorded it and immediately wanted more layers and depth. It blossomed into a powerful, moving, and soul cleansing single that is intended to go straight to the heart.

Awaken the Deep

I've always loved nature sounds within music and thought it was high time to create a duet using piano and bird song. I love the interplay between the two in this single, and I feel like the melodic, brightness of the bird song enhances the depth and mystic feel of the piano. Awaken the Deep was created to inspire and activate the depth and soul

American pianist Claire Bigley has released her new composition Quieting Tremors for solo piano. Beautifully composed, the piece draws from French Impressionism and exhibits the power of simplicity. A gentle melody opens the work, and is supported by subtle lines in the left hand before exploring a vast open space. Bigley plays with a sensitive and soft touch. She is in no hurry with Quieting Tremors, and allows notes to ring fully and for silence to have its equal share of the space. After a first listen, listeners may feel their shoulders starting to relax before completely melting away with the final notes. Overall, Quieting Tremors by Claire Bigley is a gorgeous new work for solo piano that puts listeners at ease and gives them room to breath.
