I’m into all sorts of music, everything from Progressive-rock to obscure genres like Zydeco and 90’s revival Swing. But i got into solo piano music through the occasional piano piece in movies, not unlike most people I’d assume. From there i started to listen to Phillip Glass and loved his straightforward approach to piano, simple and beautiful. From there i found Clint Mansell, Ludovico Einaudi, Peter Kater, Yann Tiersen. But after that it felt like the solo piano well got dry.
It got harder to find the kind of piano music i liked. Darker, serious, non-virtuoso playing seemed to be very narrow in the solo piano genre where most composers seemed to make super-happy-major “plinky” piano music with the occasional string sample under it.
So i decided to start writing the music i like for myself, which took me on a trip through the darker allies of my soul and my being. My album ‘Piano’ is the result of two years of labor of love, hate, anxiety, doubt and self-reflection.
I hope that everyone that listens to it feels the album all the way through, since the albums structure is not unlike classical movies. With a story that goes from lower darker places up to a happy ending.
All the best,
Sebastian Larsson

hi one question do you send your music in format midi??
do you sell your music in format midi??
I was wondering if you have “Across The Night Sky” PDF sheet music?
No sorry! Sadly i suck at writing notation, so I hope someone else might do them.
Hey Mr Larsson,
I know you probably aren’t going to read this but hey, it’s worth a try.
I’m a big fan of yours. I think that all of what you compose is truly inspirational, dark(I like dark music more than happy ones too!:) and severely underrated. You should get more people to view this talent of yours! I think that it is so awesome that you can compose actual, real, awesome sounding music while I can’t compose a whit. I love all of your songs, but Into The Dark is a particular gem. I find it truly amazing that you can handle being a footballer as well as a composer…and I wish you good luck on the journey called life.
It the best music.Me too composer Sebastian!If you want listen my music ,write my name in YouTube,i really want to have your view about that.Thank you!You and Yann Tersen the best
I finally found something that understand the melancholy and emptiness to a piano. I love your pieces, man. Keep up the good work.
i loooooooooove your music i just wish i could find sheet music for a sad piano song or heartbeats. keep composing new songs i love them!
Hello Sebastion. I want to thankyou, your music has been the source of many great ideas of mine. I first heard your music 3 or so years ago, the song was into the dark, after i heard it i searched for hours trying to find sheet music for it. When i found it i sat down and for 2 days all i played was your song, during the time i was going through a huge loss in my life. ive waited along time to hear these new songs you have, i love them. Now just like last time im going through more pain, and your music is here, yet agian, to help me through it. I will will be buying all your songs and learning them all as the sheet music comes out. Thankyou so much for the help even though you not know me, or will ever meet me, you have played a large role in my life. I feel your music, when i play, when i listin, it’s how i feel and the feelings i want to have. I hear sadness, joy, darkness, love, pain, anger, regret, many more, but most imporatnly i hear hope, a chance for a new life for things to be better than how they are now. Thankyou for helping me find my hope
Deep and well said.

Hello there. I listened to your song a while ago and I fell in love with it instantly and I was wondering what your inspiration for it was.. I think that every piece of music tells it’s own story, and was wondering what the one for this piece was?
This song in particular reminds me of a difficult and depressing relationship of one who is in a one-sided love. Thought I’d ask. :]
i really really love “into the dark ”
it’s a perfect song
great melody…
it make me wanna cry everytime i hear it
thank for your great song that make me happy
Hello, I just wanted to tell you that I have fallen madly in love with your music. I sure you hear that a lot, but I wanted to tell you that your music inspires me. The first time I heard “Into the darkness (A Sad Piano Song)” I was actually moved to tears. It may sound silly, but I do believe it has become one of my absolute favorite piano pieces. Thank you for creating such beauty. I hop e that you create more in the future.
Amazing….this is the magic of the music. How a few chords can turn ordinary life into an extraordinary experience. You make it real. Thanks
