Discography
Impromptu (2007)
Ten solo piano compositions telling ten stories without words. Many of these are improvisations that were recorded on a whim over the last few years. Others were created just for this collection. From intimate melodies to joyous dances, there is something here for everyone.

Neil Patton's premier CD. Ranging in sound from piano pop to prog rock to intimate ballads, this collection has touched the lives of many people regardless of age or religious background.
