About this product
THRIVE was composed over the last couple of years, during a period of uncertainty and fear. I have always been convinced that it is in times of adversity that we remember what is essential to us.THRIVE is the inner strength that pushes us to fight in moments of doubt or sorrow. The impulse deep inside us that incites us to search for the best, to look up, to fight to overcome difficulties and reach a kind of fulfilment.This album is for those who feel, consciously or unconsciously, the need to build something else, to seek out new horizons.For those who wish to turn their backs on the things that oppress us and aggress us, on meaningless demands.This is a personal battle at a time when collective awareness is settling in the planet is spiralling; a vortex. We must change; we can evolve. Many of us want this, and music can be a catalyst.The piano has always helped me find this momentum, and composing for strings has opened up new horizons for me.By taking inspiration from a theme, a melody, or a few notes by the greatest classical composers, I also wanted to show that there is always a personal path.I hope that this album will accompany you or inspire you to find your own way of life, there is always hope. Within us, we all have this ability; this power to transform a difficulty into an opportunity. The greater the challenge, the greater the reward. THRIVE!

Riopy TITLE Riopy InchThis album has been my catharsis since the music started coming to me almost ten years ago. It's the world seen through my eyes, or rather, through my piano. It's evolved into a patchwork of emotions, experiences, beliefs - music that put an end to struggle. From On a cloud to Old soul, the pieces here came to life and brought hope when I thought nothing could save me. They each have their place in my development; they became my language. For me, a single chord can evoke a symphony of emotions. With solo piano, everything is exposed and we have to catch what passes through our fingers, which starts as raw emotion and translates as music in it's purest form. I feel that sharing these emotions through music helps us to reconnect; these aren't fingers double tapping to like or swiping away - these are fingers pulsing across the keys of a piano. The world changes and the music will always be tuned with the world; perhaps that is why I never seem to play a piece exactly the same way I did the last time. My insecurities and weaknesses find their way into my music, but also the landscapes and the people that inspire me. I hope the music on this album can reach the soul of listeners the very same way I feel it when I playInch- Riopy
Andrew Staniland (b. 1977), recently recognized by election to the Inaugural Cohort of the College of New Scholars, Artists and Scientists Royal Society of Canada, has become one of Canada's most important and innovative musical voices. His powerful body of music for solo instruments with electronics that reveals the exciting and evocative use he makes of sound files and 'looping' have been performed and broadcast internationally. On Talking Down the Tiger, the eponymously-titled opening piece explores the ferociousness, beauty and mystery of percussion instruments whilst Flute vs. Tape is virtuosic, vivacious, and not afraid to embrace capricious fun. These qualities permeate his music and help explain why leading American writer Alex Ross calls it 'alternately beautiful and terrifying'.
