JULIAN HARTWELL MUSIC

#milieu #new #newenvirons #wehere #ici #newflow . . . 33 days ago I finally landed in Montreal, Canada..the result of a big decision to pick up my entire life and all that I built in Philly over the last 24 years....why!? To attend an audio engineering program come October and keep refining and developing my craft, yes, but also: - to expand (read: shatter) my comfort zone - force a VERY necessary & timely change of environs - challenge myself! - grow outside the bounds of the same-old, familiar, comfortable - Shake It Up ! - combat inertia & stagnation in various areas of my life - grow into new dimensions of myself - follow an intuitive knowing in my core that said: this is the right move! And now, I find myself in truly a "Milieu Nu," as the title of this work-in-progress suggests. While some things of the human experience remain similar and constant...there is quite a bit of adjustment to do! A predominantly French speaking region & culture..a wildly diverse and international city that feels like a hybrid of the buzz of New York City with the flair & pizzazz of New Orleans...navigating new terrain, public transport, day-to-day needs...figuring out how to (re)align my hustle and seek out the right work/gig/artistic opportunities..phew! It's a whirlwind and at times, I think, what did I get myself into!? However, having trusted my gut before, I know that it was the right move for the right time in my life. No one said picking up your life in your mid-thirties would be EASY. But, it's definitely an adventure worth having, and I'm grateful for all the learning curves, the unknowns, the explorations, the relative social anonymity, the guesswork and all the surprises along the way. In any case, here's the beginning salvos of a new tune that i think I shall definitely "chart out" and make official, once i firm the structure up just a bit more. Live from my new home studio, which is fittingly, subterranean. An analog for starting from "ground zero"...as it were. Montreal, we here!!! Enjoy, & more soon! . . .

#festivaljazzmtl #montrealmusic #pianopublique #streetpianos . . . You know I love a good piano publique...especially after being in Montreal almost two weeks and scavenger hunting around the city to find various public pianos in parks, libraries, and metro stations. But it was truly a DELIGHT when I stumbled upon this..directly in the midst of the action at Place des Arts for #festivaljazzmtl 2026, and to see it available and waiting to be played... Thus here lies my unoffical audition tape for the festival, starting out with an improvisation into my original tune "Street Dreams"...a fitting choice, I'd say. It was a pleasure to play for the various passersby and to add my small but mighty contribution to an absolutely incredible festival... Maybe just maybe...the right eyeballs will find this video eventually and you'll see me on a bigger festival stage in years to come...it would be a street dream come true, absolutment! :D . . .

#dontyouworryboutathing #cover #hartwell&voices #steviewondercover . Here's our rendition/my arrangement of "Don't You Worry Bout a Thing" by the great Stevie Wonder, performed live at the Black Squirrel Club in Philadelphia on May 28th, 2026. The grand finale to the first ever edition of "Hartwell & Voice" show concept, an epic vocal showcase featuring a diverse and talented crew of extraordinary vocalists, who I'm lucky to call friends. Decided to upload this full video, blemishes and all, because this moment was definitely worth documenting. This song has a particular resonance for me lately as, without divulging too many personal details - the last week of my life has been calling me to a greater level of trust, surrender, and relaxing of worries than maybe ever before! I have been feeling called (nay, forced!) to step up and surrender my will to the Divine Will and it's larger plan for my Life....so Stevie's message here is quite apropos. In any case, I hope you like what we did with it! the H(e)artwell Collective performing in this video features: Elijah B. Pringle - Vocals Lousy "the Empress" St. Vil - Vocals Stephanie Cole - Vocals Declan Cashman - Vocals Braylynn Nahja - Vocals Jackie Brooks - Vocals & Yours Truly, Julian Hartwell - Piano "Don't you worry 'bout a thing" is a song by Stevie Wonder. Thanks to Maxwell Schneider for filming this whole song. Thanks for watching! As always, feel free to like, subscribe, and share the video!

#meditationmusic #soundhealing #musicvideo #newalbum #outnow #originalmusicvideo #halcyonlisteningroom #originalmusic . . . Official video for the last track off the new album Halcyon Listening Room, now available everywhere music can be found!!! The inspiration behind this track that wraps up the album is the timeless, perennial philosophy that has been echoed through all major wisdom traditions through the ages, and states - behind all the appearances, masks, and conceptions of identity and personality that we carry around as our limited human selves - ultimately, we are a spark from the One Source - infinite, timeless presence itself. The Truth of our being is that we are all fractals of the One Self that creates, sustains, destroys the Universe - "made in the image and likeness of God." And we can access this Self, that exists beyond time and space, at any point we wish along our human journey. A beautiful ancient sanskrit verse that encapsulates this idea - and can be used as a prompt for meditation and contemplation - is this: More radiant than the Sun Purer than the Snow Subtler than the Ether Is the Self The Spirit within my Heart I am that Self That Self am I . . . Video made by me using iMovie, Runway AI video creation software and some of my own nature photography! Listen to the new album on Spotify here: https://open.spotify.com/album/0pPxV4FtpBzSGUSy2sCHFW Purchase/Download the full deluxe edition at my Bandcamp page HERE: https://julianhartwell.bandcamp.com/album/halcyon-listening-room Halcyon Listening Room is the third full-length album from pianist, composer, and producer Julian Hartwell, featuring an epic collaboration with sound healer Kirk “Evolvlove” Jones. A project almost five years in the making, the album synergistically fuses Hartwell’s piano and production skills with Evolvlove’s vast arsenal of sonic healing tools such as crystal and bronze bowls, gongs, flutes, percussion, tuning forks, and more. Together they have crafted a unique musical experience which might best be described without exaggeration as a  "hyper-dimensional sonic immersion," with the intention to guide the listener through various states of consciousness and ultimately, encourage a meditative healing experience. The album also features various nature ambiences recorded by the artists themselves as well as subtle vocal layering, intentfully placed.  . . .

#E&J #E&Jdynamicduo #natureboy #medley . . . So, Elijah approached me a few months back with an idea for a medley. I quickly realized that it was in fact, a great idea indeed. It's almost as if these two songs were made for each other, but they didn't know it until now. Until the E & J dynamic duo, of course... ;) This is from our appearance at Andrea Clearfield's Salon, now celebrating 39 years strong! An absolute highlight performance of 2025, undoubtedly. The E&J Dynamic Duo is comprised of Julian Hartwell on piano & Elijah B. Pringle on vocals. Both formidable artists in their own right, the two of them together offer a refreshing take on the intimate piano-vocal format that balances class with flair, poise with panache. Featuring a repertoire that includes choice jazz standards, R&B faves of yesteryear, and pop gems curated from the 70's and on, a drop in with this dynamic duo is definitely worth the visit."
