I always like discovering old music I made- had to be fun listening in the car...great tune. This could almost be split out into several great song ideas.

What a glorious melody and such a flowing feel you have given it. Tear jerking!
I liked the touch of pizzicato and the hint of Irish lilt too.
This is wonderful Richard. Breathtaking!

Have you ever woken up in the middle of the night with just the coolest tiny idea? perhaps a musical dream? these small pieces are just that,, tiny little musical notes that just seem to break into my normal musical day,, one take suff
think…
Another "Love gone bad" song.
baby we've been here before

they cut me to the core
if only you'd open your eyes
If only you'd open your heart...
Chorus:
You and me
are not the same
and i wish you fell for me

Several years ago I had a short lived duo with an oboe and English horn player named Nat. This is a demo from that period. It's an old old chord progression of mine that never really had a melody and Nat improvised this melody in the studio to…
I was inspired by the music of a friend of mine, their band is called Aradhna and you might like to check them out. I've attempted to compose a song in the Hindi language and here it is.

Norm Harris performs the excellent percussion
Down by the riverside
Where all of the fish had died
I threw my faith right in

Ok, so I'm just a percussionist, and if your only tool is a hammer, the entire world looks like a nail. I get it. And I also get that our songs are our children, so we should be very careful about whom we let them play with.

I wanted to start composing in the "classical" or "romantic" style for piano. This is the first movement of a sonata fantasia, its a sonata because it has three movements, but a fantasia because it doesnt have the exact structure of a sonata.
Well done friend,,, very lyrical,, i am just now trying to do my first sonata,, you give me inspiration!! this is very pretty,, how long/how many iterations did this take??
