My Name is Nathan Madse, I started playing the piano at age 14. I was watching a special on PBS of Gerswhin's Rhapsody In Blue and was mesmorised. I decided to learn how to play it. At my first piano recital I wore a tux and stepped up to the piano, other selections heard that night were mary had a little lamb and nick nack paddy wack give a dog a bone.
I played the first few bars and recieved a standing ovation. I began writing music at age 14 as well, lyric and music came naturaly to me as though I were listening to a radio station and writing down the words I was hearing. I won first place at the talent show for my college, a song I wrote about my then fiance now wife Rebecca who had lost the ability to walk and see at age 8. It was called little Ballerina. I love solo piano, and am fans of John Schmidt, Kurt Bestor, David Lanz, George Winston to name a few. I hope I can provide the same type of music for listeners to enjoy because I am also an avid listener as well.
Have you performed in front of an audience?
The roof in Salt Lake, ZCMI in Salt Lake, Nordstroms in DC, and I've played in my living room a few times as well... anyone's invited

That was a refreshingly listen, great songs, production.etc. I'll keep a close eye on what you're doing.
I would appreciate it if you could take a listen to some of my songs, I'd describe as 60s pop garage, folk, psychedelic, 'alternative', experimental pop.
Good luck, The Nameless Composer
Lovely compositions Nathan. Thanks. A wonderful musical journey. Story telling with just a piano alone. Your music takes the listener through highs and lows, and the music comes alive as if it's tell me something. I don't know what.. but it's totally believable. Well expressed and played. Lastly, I feel you're somewhat of a musical Genius! Congratulations. Just keep doing what you do. cool.
New song Snow Angels Listen now...
