In May and July, I had the privilege of recording some of Edward Said’s favorite music by Schumann, Chopin, and Mozart for this beautiful documentary, Edward Said: Between Worlds. Produced by Sarah Mowaswes with composSarah Mowaswestom, it’s curreKareem Roustomal selection of the Toronto International Film Festival and others.

Twenty years after his death, renowned Palestinian-American scholar, musician, and intellectual Edward Said recounts the untold history of Palestine through sweeping archival footage and recordings. The first documentary made with full access to the Said family and estate, EDWARD SAID: BETWEEN WORLDS traces his political awakening, personal struggles, and lifelong reckoning with exile. Featuring never-before-seen family archives, home movies, rare television appearances, lectures, and materials from Columbia University, Maiken Baird’s documentary portrait spans seven decades, from Said’s childhood in Jerusalem to his death in New York City, asking who has the right to tell their own story.

The fifth release from Pink Preludes is dedicated to Dr. Irene Peery-Fox, my piano teacher from the time I was six years old until I moved to London at age twenty-four. The first photo here is a massive hug after winning the 1997 Jr. Gina Bachauer International Piano Competition.

As a child and early teenager, she taught me the value of patience and disciplined practice, and somehow made Prokofiev’s Second Piano Concerto and Rachmaninoff’s Paganini Variations feel like worlds I couldn’t wait to enter. Under her guidance, I went on to win more than twenty international and national piano competitions.

Prelude in B-flat Major opens with a curious motive, compact and quietly persistent. The middle section moves through longer sequential lines before the opening theme returns, nostalgic and a little more settled.

Prelude in B-flat Major (For Irene) is out now. Save & listen through the link in bio.

Out today, the fourth release from Pink Preludes is dedicated to my dear friend Patrick Dunne of New Orleans—someone whose friendship, mentorship, and intellectual curiosity have shaped my life in enormous ways.

The subtitle (Madeleine) references the famous passage from Marcel Proust’s Remembrance of Things Past, where the taste of a simple cake unexpectedly unlocks a vivid childhood memory. Patrick gifted me a special copy of the novel years ago.

Prelude in E Minor begins quietly before gradually unfolding into a warm and reflective atmosphere in G Major — a full submersion into a moment from the past. The piece is less about nostalgia than what Proust called “involuntary memory”: the way an ordinary sensory experience can suddenly surface something long forgotten. The music returns to its opening minor motif, bringing us back to the present. The glass is empty.

Prelude in G Major (Dear Mother) - Streaming May 29th

The third of twenty-eight preludes is dedicated to my mother, Leslie.

Some of the writing in this piece is partly inspired by favorite films we used to watch together, and it also reflects the love and curiosity for life that she instilled in me.

She spent hundreds and hundreds of hours sitting beside me at the piano, devoted to my lessons — and I’m just one of her seven children.

She’s a rock star… AND she introduced me to Led Zeppelin. 🤘

Love you, Mama.

Prelude in G Major (Dear Mother), releasing May 29th.

What are your favorite poems about mothers? Here is one of mine:

Because I feel that, in the Heavens above,
The angels, whispering to one another,
Can find, among their burning terms of love,
None so devotional as that of “Mother”—

“To My Mother” — Edgar Allan Poe

Inside Pink Preludes:
Prelude in E-flat Minor (Lift Bridge) is dedicated to Adrian Domingo, with whom I have had the pleasure of sharing six years of life. Our first (tiny) studio overlooked the lift bridge connecting East Harlem in Manhattan to Mott Haven in The Bronx. Here is a collage of photos and videos taken during our time there.
