bit of a key change, and temperament,
just as small note: the opening and closing strings really buzz cool in headphones, something i though i might give a try too

Glad to finally be getting some listening in. I've been meaning to check out your RPM stuff this year, and I'm going to have to listen to this whole sequence/work in one sitting to get it all in. This is sounding marvelous, Richard.

Of my celestial patroness, who deigns
Her nightly visitation unimplor'd,
And dictates to me slumb'ring, or inspires
Easy my unpremeditated verse:"
Paradise Lost: Book IX - John Milton
masterpiece! what more can i say,,, i love the way your beautiful musical textures weave and fold about each other, i was listening to some of your music while i was cooking dinner tonight,, what a gift,, while i guess there was more i could say..

Buck, ive gotta say, im asking myself, how have i missed your music for so long? this and alllll your pieces and playing are quite beautiful!! you have a great feel in your fingers as they play with the stings,, wow a new fellow to follow,, looking forward to wandering through all your music r
One of my other hobbies is watching wildlife in the area. I'm the happiest with a pair of binoculars around my neck and my hiking boots laced up.
Rita and I took these photos over the last few days, near our home.
Dakota County / February 2014
wow! quite fine,, i also spend a fair amount of time outside looking up.. last week i was able to get my best ever red tailed hawk photos,, it's cool we have something else in common in addition to music,, very very nice r
a 13 minute improvisation I played on a newly tuned Steinway grand piano at my Church. The only audience was my Zoom H2 – which is probably good since there are a few glaring “misses” in the performance. I love the joy of just playing but it does…

the second theme at about 1:40 is lovely, and i like the way it changes at about 3:10 or so, sort of climbing out into a different plain,, very pretty riffs in the 5 min and on, i like it when you break away from the cord structure to individual keys/notes,,,, at times through this i can hear the slight pauses where it seems like your thinking/planing what direction to take,, OUR DOING GREAT! it's a fun musical journey and im happy to be along... you have a lot of really nice small themes in this,, excellent! oh and by the way for many years i played on a churches concert steinway,, loved it, especially because most churches have such a lovely sound scape to make music in , not to mention the also wonderful light that typically filters in,, ah a small bit of heaven (guess that makes sense though) well anyway excellent Chris
I'm doing just Fine with Buck Erpestad. Check out Bucks music here:

Here is what Buck said he added:
"So I used the tremolophone (vibes) and tuba sounds in Garageband and played them on the keyboard."
This is an invitation, with instructions, on how any AT musician can hop a train in the US and get to my house for a jam session. Figured the lyrics needed to mention all 3 of the collaborating musicians home towns cuz they all run along these…
wooow! very cool, your arrangement is great! if you should see some old, hairless guy with a keyboard chasing you on this train,, that would be me ,, well done

Brrrr! Throw another log on the fire!
Ah, here it is, I wondered where no. 4 was! Lovely tender strings. So meltingly gorgeous.

Great tune... a little passing thought ... goes a long way! great stuff!
