Another of our MySpace friends whose music I particularly like is Mario Raposo. His music is classified as Electronica/Classical. Mario Raposo is from Portugal and is said to be a self-taught musician. His music is created on keyboards and synthesisers. My favorite piece of the four available on his MySpace page is Heartland. It is a lovely, melodic piece that makes you feel good to listen to it. This piece reminds me a great deal of Victoria, a beautiful music2work2 session and one of my favorites.

I want to let you know about one of our MySpace friends who decided to help make a difference for a group of local citizens who serve their community. Charles-Henri Avelange, from France now located in Seattle, Washington, says that when he came to the United States in 2005, he discovered what the word "hero" actually means. He produced an album, The Age of Heroes, to honor all those individuals who risk their lives daily for our safety and our freedom. More specifically, his album, The Age of Heroes, became the official fundraiser for the Washington State Council of Fire Fighters. The four pieces of music available to hear on his MySpace page are from The Age of Heroes. The music is beautiful, inspiring and moving. It is especially appropriate in a time when we have heroes risking their lives in foreign countries, and heroes here at home serving their fellow citizens not just daily but during the disasters that continue to plague our country. I would recommend you check it out.
One of our newer friends on MySpace.com is Piano Man John. John Pederson is from California and is a pianist-keyboardist. His music reminds me a lot of music2work2 sessions, and in fact, is referred to as "Healing and Easy Listening." John Pederson's Themes of Love, which is one of my favorites on his MySpace page (along with First Anniversary) reminds me of music2work2's Boys Bedtime Music. Both are piano pieces which are relaxing and calming. As with music2work2, Piano Man John often combines other voices with the piano, but the four examples of his music on his MySpace page are the piano alone.
