Memories in Autumn

by Cristopher
(Stow)

My name is Cristopher Hoisington, I'm a self taught pianist, so my skills are quite minimal. Occasionaly i will sit down at my keyboard and just play around with the keys and try to make something up. Very rarely do I ever write down what I play, but find other ways of keeping a record of it, such as through video or sound recording.

I'm 21 years old and I live in the city of Stow located in North Eastern Ohio. I graduated from Stow-Munroe Falls High School and have not yet enrolled in college. My primary career interest is in Pharmaceuticals. Things havnt been easy for me lately, so "getting the ball rolling" is a little harder than just giving it a push.

I've experianced some massive heart ache in my time, but that's where my art flourishes the most. A lot of the time I use the key of D Major. Its the key that i feel so comfortable with. I have a strange connection with it. Songs I've written in this key move me more than anything else I've written in another key, say A Minor.

Writing music is not something I wish to do as a career choice, its more of a tool that allows all that I can't say to be said. I love music very very much. It seems to be the only way I can connect with emotions and feelings that I might not be aware of. All in all, it makes me a better person.
