Graszhauser crafts a symphony that burns like fire and clandestinely calms your senses

Graszhauser is an artist and producer based out of Leeds, England, who infuses classical music of the greatest form with hints of neoclassicism that combines together to make a vast texture of sounds unique to his own. Deriving his works of art from lived experiences, he delves deep into his own psyche to reflect on parts unknown even to himself. His crafted symphonies are as much about the fruits of music as they are about glory of storytelling.

Graszhauser

What do dreams and personal tragedies sound like? Can a pianist play his notes such that they feel like clouds running through the distant mountains? Such are the questions that arise in a listener's mind upon hearing Graszhauser's newest single, "Good bye, Bavaria!" for the first time.

The piece begins with an inciting and inviting sound that leads us seamlessly to the piano ballad. Looking at it from an outsider's perspective, meaning from someone who doesn't know that "Bavaria" is mentioned in the symphony's title, the song reeks of passion and ceases to drive away its passionate amorous message until the end of its 2 minute runtime. It burns like fabulous flames lit during nights of emblazoning passion and calms the pulsating waves of your emotions.

Now, addressing the mention of "Bavaria" in the title, one can't help but think of Werner Herzog -- one of the greatest artists of all time. The piece sounds like something straight out of his films and it can serve his voice really well.

 "It burns like fabulous flames lit during nights of emblazoning passion and calms the pulsating waves of your emotions. "

Graszhauser's maturity when it comes to putting together a vast array of instruments such as cow bells, triangle and alphorn with a beautifully laid out piano piece already showcases the depth of his talents as a composer of music. He is someone who isn't scared to make music both me, you and, let's say, even John Milton would like.
