My name is Kevin F.J. Harris. For over thirty years I have been composing music. It has been something I enjoy doing. When I was seven years old my parents noticed that I had a musical gift, so they signed me up for piano lessons. For the next four years I would study piano. But during that time I also expressed interest in composing my own music. Unfortunately my piano teacher wasn't interested in nurturing that interest. However, I did manage to write a very small piece for piano at that time. But time passed and I lost interest in playing the piano and composing my own stuff. But when I was 27 years old, the interest came back and I started playing again. It would be that year that a friend, and amateur composer, would help me learn the basics of composition. I would go on to write my first real compositions shortly thereafter. For a short time I was also a student of American composer Jeffrey Brody, who taught me harmony. Since 1992 I have composed nearly 100 compositions, which range from simple piano pieces, to chamber works, to works for full orchestra.

Impromptu for Piano in F minor, Op. 52 "Dismay and Despair"
Very proud to present this, my latest work. This is my first piece in over a year and it's a tour de force of emotions. The end of 2023 was a difficult time and that bled over into 2024. This piece represents the utter dismay and despair I have felt on and off over that period of time.
