Classically trained in piano and composition, Jan Hanford enjoys many styles of
music but her first love is the piano.
Jan was born in Philadelphia, PA and currently lives in the San Rafael (California) and London (England).
She started piano lessons at the age of 7. By high school she was composing solo

really touch me the most. Music is my passion."

24 Preludes for Solo Piano
These 24 short pieces for piano were not improvised, they were composed and
scored in traditional notation. The style is a blend of classical structure with
rhythms and tonality often found in new age or rock.
Sometimes fast and vibrant. Sometimes simple and emotional. Always melodic and
compelling.
Watch Jan Hanford playing her composition "Prelude 24" at her home in California.
