Jade Ashtangini - Teacher

I’ve always felt that my music and photography are searching for the same quiet state — stillness, space, soft light, distant landscapes, and a deep sense of calm that doesn’t need to demand attention.

In music, I’m drawn to warm, gentle piano tones, breathing space between notes, and melodies that move softly like wind, water, or passing light.
And in photography, I often find myself drawn toward fog, mountains, snow, muted colors, and the feeling of simply standing silently within nature.

Maybe that’s why these two forms of expression have always felt so deeply connected to me — both are less about creating noise, and more about creating atmosphere, air, and the gentle movement of time.
Just quiet companions for the small, ordinary moments of everyday life.

Wabi-Sabi (わび・さび) — a soft felt piano piece inspired by simplicity, imperfection, and the quiet passage of time — is now available as sheet music on Bandcamp.

With a calm, spacious, and gently flowing piano voice, the piece carries a sense of stillness and subtle warmth, inviting a quiet moment of reflection at the piano.

Approach it gently, let the sound breathe, and allow the music to unfold at its own pace.

A few quiet moments I’ve been capturing lately — this is just one frame 🌿
There’s a softness in these scenes that’s hard to capture in a single moment.

Last Friday, I released Zen Nights.
Today, the first sheet music for this piece was sold.

It brought a gentle smile to my heart.

In this world of countless paths and passing moments,
so many people come and go.
And yet, someone happened to hear my music —
at just the right time.

Out of so many styles,
so many melodies,
they connected with this one.

They didn’t just listen —
they went looking for the sheet music for Zen Nights,
and chose to bring the music
into their own hands and heart.

I believe this is a kind of fate.
A quiet, meaningful connection
between a composer and a listener,
meeting through music.

And today, I’m grateful for that.
