Hello again, friends. I've been in sort of a composing funk for the past few months, lots of life stressors and, really, an utter lack of motivation to blame. I was hoping to write something on a grander scale but I had to settle for solo piano once again. You know what they say: beggars can't be choosers. This is the opening prelude to what will likely become another suite for piano. It's written in harmonic language derived from non-heptatonic scales (my favorite, as some of you know by now), and, as such, may sound unpleasantly dissonant. The chords are quartal or quintal rather than triadic, and there's no sense of a home key. It can't quite be classifed as atonal, however, because the note pitches do play a functional role; it is probably best described as modal, which presents a listening experience unusual to ears familiar with tonal harmony. Nevertheless, I hope you find it enjoyable, or at least appreciable. Feedback and comments are always welcome (so are any questions you may have)! Please, enjoy!

Here I bring you an old reuploaded piece.

Lol, yes, I said that backwards. Thanks for clarifying.

7th as the worst??? Come ON SON!!!!! 7th is a masterpiece. The third movement? Carlos Kleiber's rendition is a breathtaking!!!

And again... you make my mind go "simply music..." Made a poem, since i like poetry and I love your music: Music... this sound that comes to my heart from the silence, I feel calm, emotion, passion, the color I smell, I see how it tastes, I touch its sound, brings me reminiscence... How is that I feel, the liberty, when inside of this shell? Falls, on the ground, is that a meteor, is that a star? It doesn't shine, what is it, but a cold try? A try of fantasy, a prelude to that sonata that starts It doesn't shine, but it enlightens me I won't lie, It fugues my imagination, it opera-tes my heart, "Lieder Ohne worte" in the sound, "reflets dans l'eau", without light. Running birds in the sky, (along that ascending ban run) Feels like swimming on this air, Raining seas keep it dry, Might be drowning on this afair, What's this feeling? Is magic right? What fell off was my torment, What shines are my eyes, Are my words the ones that fly, Are my breaths the ones that augment, Are my tears the ones that fight, What's keeping them? Eyelids that unzip, Brain that opens, jail let's free my mind, I wanted to remember, memories rewind. What's this feeling? Is that... MUSIC? (mind I did my best with my english level, if I could use spanish I would have done a cultured one).

A minuet for solo flute. I thought about adding a cello accompaniment which I may do later.

I love simple dance forms and this is a well crafted beginners' piece.
