Aulasy by Alex Cross
"Aulasy" is a series of piano, rhodes & synth based improvisations inspired by visits to 15 national parks throughout 2021 and 2022. It is a musical representation of the emotions, experiences and takeaways throughout these trips.
The word Aulasy means: "the sadness that there is no way to convey a powerful memory to people who weren't there at the time." It fit the theme of this record both in the context of the songs and in relation to memories as a whole. I hope you enjoy!
