Hi,

Dear Mr. Shepard,

Please do not take this as an insult, but I play your music while playing hardcore online first-person shooter games. A strange combination of adrenaline-rush and heart-slowing, I admit.

In any case, your music is beautiful and it calms the heart so well. I can only hope you continue to produce such art and that the world still sees a huge place for this.

Best of luck and regards,
Deegrin~

Hi,
I was feeling discouraged today and decided to play Music Catch 2 again just to relax. While doing that, I decided I’d love to find sheet music for the 3 pieces you used there and hear more work by you, so I Googled you up. I was surprised to find your album names came from Bible verses and the one you posted for this album was particularly helpful to me at the moment. Interesting how I choose game over God when I’m upset, but God chases after me instead through your music =P

Thank you! And keep up the good work! Music Catch 1 + 2 are listed as top 10 web games of 2008 and 2009, respectively, on the site I follow =)

Thank u! I didn’t think about the two things that you said… Good points! thank you again sir. And on your next few songs could you make it like… leaves in the wind + before dawn + memories never fade + slightly easier sprinkle to rain? I think it’ll sound awesome!

@Sanghyuk Kim, thanks! I recorded Swept Away on my Pramberger JP-52 upright studio piano. I don’t know much about Steinbach pianos, but the two most important things about any piano, in my opinion, are: 1. you enjoy playing it and 2. you think it has a nice sound. If you like your piano, it doesn’t really matter what anyone else thinks about it. Thanks for writing!

After listening to all you’re songs I was sad to find I only had enough to buy one Album. It’s my goal to buy each one now. You’re music is incredible. In my opinion, it’s much better than Mozart or any other composer that has ever done a piano solo.

Time: October 13, 2009, 5:22 pm

I think part of the memories never fade sheet music is incorrect. At measure 72 instead of continuing the arpeggio it goes into the whole note. But it doesnt when you play it on the album. Im going off of the album music since you say you arnt the best at sheet music but you play it right.

It is a while ago now that I heard ‘Before Dawn’ for the first time. Then, it was in a flash game of somebody who liked the music also very much.
I really liked the music also, so I went on search for more music, and stumbled across the sheet music of Before Dawn.
I’m playing Marimba, so I think I’m going to try playing it. Thank you =). You make really beautiful music.

You know, I have been looking for music like this for about 5 years now. Nothing was as peaceful & breathtaking as your music Isaac. I can’t believe how beautiful it is. I have never been taught piano but I have been in love with the instrument since i was very young. So I try to teach myself. I am 16 and I guess I can play by ear for God has blessed me greatly as He has blessed you too Isaac.

And to Cidney, I think Don gave great advice. If you really love piano and music there are always ways to learn it without a teacher. I don’t recognize notes myself, but i’ll get to that one day hopefully.

Comment from Don
Time: September 26, 2009, 10:51 am

Cidney: I didn’t say anything callous to you in my comment. I just suggested that you should learn to read sheet music as it’s a valuable skill. If you teach yourself, use the internet as a resource and learn to read music by yourself. There are plenty of resources. Eventually, you’ll be able to read music easily.

You didn’t have to be unkind.

I know this is probably for questions, but I just have to say, from a fellow pianist and music lover, that Before Dawn is a song that will capture anyone. The first time someone hears it, it seems like an epic story, a dance through time that makes you stop to listen. This song is a gorgeous piece that would be top of anyone’s playlist.

Hello Judith! I believe you can purchase the physical CD from either CD Baby (http://cdbaby.com/cd/isaacshepard) or from Amazon.de (imported) and have it shipped to Germany. If the reason you don’t want the download version is because you want better sound quality, keep in mind that I also offer FLAC files as well as MP3 files when you buy the download version from the website. FLAC files are much bigger, but they are “lossless”, which means that the audio quality is as good as the original recording. Either way, I hope you enjoy the music… and thanks for writing!

you’re a genius. I’ve just bought today the Swept Away, after i bought the Deep Joy in this week. I love your songs. Especially the ‘Sprinkle to Rain’. Near 3:15 – 3:45 i heard some false notes, but i think that was conscious. Could you provide the sheets for that song? Anyway i like the dynamic of the song, the chords, the idea behind the song. It’s a master piece.

So you have a CD? Waaooh. Australia’s slow, ‘eh?

Thanks for making such beautiful pieces. You’ve inspired me.

P.S. Just out of curiosity why do you have such little dynamics on your sheet music. (Not that you have any, now that I actually look)

But you’re still awesome, so that covers for it.

I am no musician at all, far from it, but I found myself attracted to playing that silly game which I actually didn’t enjoy, again and again, until it dawned on me that it is your music that I went back to.

Hello,

Before I heard your song Before Dawn, I was hiding from music. Prior to my leave from the piano I was forced to play music crafted by the hands of Bach and Liszt. Not only did it make me feel ancient and out-of-date, but all together awful. I left the 18th century and also the keyboard. But after playing Music Catch on Kongregate I realized that the piano is not an ancient instrument, but a tool to create modern music. Suddenly I wanted to make music again! Thanks for being my inspiration to play music.

And when I play this song for my friends, it kicks the wind out of them.

And now to my request, could you please record a video of yourself playing before dawn and post it on youtube, i really want to see the master play it!

And i really think that by posting videos of your songs on youtube would really help publicity. I for one would love to see Walt’s Waltz (aswell as before dawn)

You’re an inspiration, after listening to before dawn, I’ve never wanted to get back to taking up piano (after abandoning it many years ago) more. I guess you’ve somewhat re lit the passion I had for the piano.
Thank you for that.

Hi.
I just wanted to say I love “Before Dawn”. I haven’t listened to anything else of yours yet, but i certainly plan on it. I have been playing piano for 10 years, and I am probably going to learn a few of your pieces now that i have heard Before Dawn.

Keavin, yes, I’m already in the process of getting the album up on iTunes, as well as many of the other online sites. It will hopefully be up in the next month or so. I’ll post about it when it is up.

Thanks for your interest!

Well, Isaac I was wondering….like Tim if you could put the songs on ITunes. It would be enjoyed by millions of people. They can spread the word of you and your works and hopefully be as sucessful as you.

I am a 15 year old piano player. I’ve been taking lessons for about 8 years now. The first time I heard “Before Dawn” on the game Music Catch, I told myself I HAD to find who composed this music! I LOVE it and I’m going to try to learn it. Thank you soo much for the downloadable version of “Before Dawn”! It’s so beautiful!!!

I was wondering if you will ever publish an entire book of sheet music for all of your songs. I really want to learn to play each and every one.

Before Dawn… ah, that song is amazing, its very calming and half-way through, its very energetic. I love it, I would love to download the sheet for it, and attempt to learn it, I’m not that great of a pianist, but just listening to this song, makes me seem like its possible. Anyways enough with me… Great song, amazing talent you have there, and thank you for sharing it with everyone.

i love how every song as a perfect name. For instance, the song Before Dawn, if i had to imagine music for every time of the time, Beofre Dawn would be exatly it. BEfore Down is truly amazing. it almost makes be cry :*D and i think it would be a good song for dancing ballet to.

Sitting in work in a very stressed company listening to Before Dawn has managed to put a smile on my heavy tied face only wish I could buy this in the UK on CD for the long drive in to work every morning. Make me think of my lovely 3 month old daughter

You are truly a gifted artist. I did, indeed, purchase your CD from Amazon. I have no words for how your music has touched my soul. And, although, everyone is buzzing about Swept Away, my favorite piece is Unattainable Desire. Thank you for bringing such beauty into my life. I am forever indebted.

This is really beautiful music. I went to buy the album, but Amazon only offers music downloads to US customers, so I was not able to buy it.

Please, find another way to sell your music, or else you are limited to USA only…

Thanks,

Thank you for being able to print “Before Dawn”. My grandson, who is a Marine serving in Iraq, e-mailed me and asked if I could learn to play it before he comes back. It was very inspirational to him. I’m looking forward to learning to play it. Thanks again. Grandma T.
