“Either in the darkest moments or in the most serene and contemplative ones, you always get a look pure and direct to Krampl, veiled with melancholy and a great sense of compassion”

— Arlequins

Bio

Gerald Krampl (born 1954 in Vienna, Austria) started his musical career in his early youth by being trained in classical piano and music theory.
In the 70s and 80s he had two prog-rock bands, KYRIE ELEISON and INDIGO, where he played keyboards and wrote all songs and successfully released several LPs, CDs and Singles. His own company IndigoMusic was founded in 1983, first mainly to market his own band works, but soon expanded with various side projects.
After a break 1993 from the music business followed a new start in 1999 with his AGNUS DEI “Project for Music & Poetry” together with his wife and poet Hilde, settled in the New Age / Spiritual Music genre. After her unexpected death in 2002, several CDs together with her poetry were posthumously released on his new Sandrose Records label.
Since 2006 Gerald works now as a solo artist in a neo-classical / ambient / chamber music style, writing music for various projects, so f.e. soundtrack music for films and web presentations, accompanying music for a classical German fairy tales album, and of course now mainly his unique neo-classical / new age piano works for his frequently released solo piano albums, including his latest work:

About The Album

11 songs for solo piano, each one standing for itself as a solitaire piece of music, all of them written 2020/21 during pandemic lock downs and personal restrictions, though trying to stay positive and devoted to the spirit of the music that seems as always coming to me from where so ever! So unlike my other solo piano albums there is no overall concept behind these new songs, each one has it's own unique theme, symbolized also with just one single name as song title. If you listen carefully you might also find a bit more classical influences in this new songs, this is owed to the fact that in this forced time of pandemic retreat I had the chance to dive deeper into the music of my favorite classical composer Franz Schubert, which undeniably left some traces in my compositions. But in my opinion this corresponds very well with my musical approach of a Classical New Age!
