Lagoa Rodrigo Freitas (Inspiration from my Trip to Rio de Janeiro)

Inspiration from my Trip to Brazil. Rio de Janeiro was the farthest I have ever traveled and one of the best experiences in my life.This was one of the first places I got to experience. With a 4.5 mile circumference, you can take a nice walk around Lagoa Rodrigo Freitas is that would take just over 2 hours. 

My favorite time to go was during the evening hours so you can see the beauty at golden hours when the water reflects the sky.

The music was inspired by Samba, which is a style of music that is commonly heard and played in Brazil. The song reminds me of how relaxing and new it felt to be in Rio and how care free it was to be there.

Nearly 2 Months of being Missing!

Wow! I  haven't posted anything in so long! Let's just say Februrary was a very busy month. And being busy isn't a bad thing. It's just being busy. Through out the weekend days of February I was one of the lead star roles of a short film called "Little Things." I will discuss more of the project in detail in one of my next posts. I am also in the process of developing my first mobile game app. I also got to help one of my closest friends at her Fashion App Launch Party! The last couple of weeks have been intense, with multiple jobs, projects and other things but they have been fun ones! I won't deny I am a bit exhausted even now but I am very happy that I got to be apart of the projects and things that have been going on lately. I just needed to post something to let you all know I am alive and well! I will be sharing my latest escapades soon! This is also a recent picture of me, just before I got my beautiful hair cut off! I hope to grow it that long and pretty again soon!

Playing the Grand

One of the best things in life is playing the piano. There is nothing like it in the world! Although it fun to just sit down and play whatever I am in the mood to play, being able to play the piano and just "jam" away at the keys was not a talent that I accomplished in one night. I have been playing piano since I was 6 years of age. I  feel every person should have the opportunity to learn to play a musical instrument.

I admit it wasn't always fun to play. When I first started playing or rather I should say learning to play, it was absolutely tiring and as child, quite draining. But after several years of playing, the songs became fun to play and as time when by, it became rather fun to just sit down and start playing a song cause well, I could actually sit and play something that I would enjoy playing. Now, I can listen to a song and within little time at all I can roughly figure out how to play the song. 

I think the best feeling though is being to play what I want to play. When I started learning, I couldn't play just any song cause I didn't know how to play any song. How could I hope to play a song I really liked if I couldn't even play something I needed to learn? 

Practicing and constant practice was necessary to develop the skill and talent of playing music. Once I mastered enough songs and skills to understand music, I was able to pick up on other songs and now, playing piano is only fun fun fun! Actually I can't really say it's pure fun cause I still do has to practice. But, the practice is fun now!

First Keyboard Pictures

Just some pictures from one of my first photo shoots in Los Angeles. I just recently moved to LA when I had these pictures taken.  I just was beginning the big journey of music an composing for the big screen an still had so much to learn about how much hard work it would take to make these big dreams come true! 

This is also during the time where I had the opportunity to compose for the first film I made music for the documentary short, the "Scissor-Tailed Flycatcher."

Me Playing the Piano

Timothy Michael Gould, Urban Outfitters, Tim Gould, Timothy Gould, Tim Blogger, Tim Gould Fashion Blogger, Tim Gould Composer, Tim Gould Actor, Tim Gould Creative Director, Tim Gould Blogger, @Timothymichaelgould, #timothymichaelgould, Tim Gould LA, Tim Gould Los Angeles, Timothy Gould, Tim Gould Studio City, Timothy Michael Gould Los Angeles,I love to play piano. It's a lifeline. A weakness. A love of mine. My pride and downfall. My hope and fear. My driving force and my distraction! Gosh! Playing the piano is everything. Almost! Hahaha! It's fills me and relieves me in so many ways unknown to most. Not to sound impolite or rude but I can't a imagine how people can live without being able to play a musical instrument. But that's prolly cause we who play are really weird people anyways. And to me, weird is unique. Not mainstream. Hey, I'm finally blogging something easy. Yay! Music! Something I don't have to think really hard about to actually motivate me to write about it either. I don't know if I am grammatically correct there but with music I couldn't be more righter! Usually I play what I am currently composing but quite often I fun myself looking back to the classics for their awesome insight. Studying the great works of the past help me develop myself and my creativity. Such composers from the baroque period all the way to the contemporary. Even before the baroque even, but mostly music during the time where the piano was played. By contemporary I don't exactly mean just what you hear on the radio but also the contemporary program composers. My favorite composition style would definitely be music from the post-romantic era. Not a very specific defined area of music history per se, but definitely an area where composers and music was able to take tonality and spread to an amplified key or just break the rules altogether and make something chaotic or in a unique dissonant way, make something extraordinarily beautiful. Music whether its classical, ethnic, pop, rock, folk, alternative, soundtrack, atonal, or whatever it might be, it all serves a purpose. All the music out there whether its something we can enjoy or not so much serves a unique purpose in a certain time or place. I guess this is my post for appreciating music and my great love for playing the piano. It is something will always be with me!
