About Patrick Godfrey

In the artist’s words: Describe one of your earliest musical memories in detail. I remember playing four hand ragtime, blues and classical piano pieces with my father, who played by ear. I recall Gershwin, Rachmaninoff Bach and Fats Waller. I was around eight years old and soon piano became the centre of my life. What are your top 3 all-time favorite albums on Apple Music, and why? Why did you choose these three albums in particular? Jan Bartoš, Janáček: Piano Works Marc-André Hamelin, Fauré: Nocturnes & Barcarolles The Beatles, Revolver (Super Deluxe) Bartos beautifully captures the atmosphere and story-telling in Janacek's On An Overgrown Path. Hamelin's virtuosity brings Fauré's Nocturnes and Barcarolles to life, sounding as if they were written yesterday. Revolver! Secrets revealed! Find a song of yours on Apple Music that you love and tell us what makes it special. Tell us why you chose this song. “All Along” All Along opens my first album, Ancient Ships, recorded January 1979. Finding my way into a complex musical world, searching for my own voice, listening and playing widely, studying and writing, All Along marks the beginning of my recording career.
