Ilexa Yardley writes music that is deep and complex, yet simple and attainable. Her?music is relaxing and intuitive and takes listeners to?an internal,?peaceful state where it is easy to 'think' and relax.

Yardley's music has been described as a cross between new-age keyboard and film score backdrop; many people say it is immediately calming and?easy to meditate with.

Yardley's?intention is always to?integrate intuition with emotion and thought, using keyboard harmonies and progressions to do so.?The music is meant to help people de-compress, or find their intuitive center.

Yardley was trained as a classical pianist and started writing music at the age of six. Like many musicians, she tended to criss-cross?back and forth from her own compositions to the work of the giants in both classical and jazz.

She was?influenced by her father,?who was a guitarist, as well as Chopin,?Stephen Foster, the opera repertoire, and the music of Wagner, Puccini, Mahler, Mozart,?Beethoven, Elgar, Donizetti, and Rachmaninoff.

Yardley's music is composed?and recorded with a Kurzweill XS2600.
