Hello there! A bit of back story... So, I've been really busy with music lately. Sure that's great, but it's been mostly learning a bunch of songs that aren't mine. I've started numerous projects in the past month or so, but put them on hold to be able to write shorter pieces while I'm unable to focus on larger works. I've decided to write a bunch of small piano preludes, one for each note as a tonal center. This first one is for A, and relies heavily on venturing into augmented scales and chords. I hope you enjoy this, I had a lot of fun so far with the intention of writing small and more accessible and easier piano pieces (some measures maybe not so much 😄 ) The whole goal of this new project of mine is to write music that's playable for anyone, not some monumental Liszt type of piece I hear too often. Yes, I play piano, but not as well as I hope to become. These set of 12 pieces coming in the future would be pieces I'd be able to play, and maybe there would be a few others out there that would enjoy them as well. I find it gratifying to rely on a simpler skill set, as the notes and ideas themselves would be my mark on the world rather than then plethora of notes I feel many seem to deem adequate for something to be "good". I recently yet again heard Mozart's Sonata No. 11 in A, and it's a piece that I've heard periodically throughout my life as the most simple yet most impactful music. Sometimes it's not how many notes you play, but how many right ones you play... something like that at least. That's what I'll generally be going for. Hope you enjoy, and ANY criticism, comments, and thoughts are always welcome 🙂 EDIT: I'm replacing the mp3 with Henry's performance. Can't thank you enough buddy!

Noooo not the awful Witcher Netflix series. I mean the game, Witcher 3: Wild Hunt. That was good, and had some pretty great tunes, and your piece around the 1 minute mark sounds like it would fit in that game. I'm old, so the Bear score I am most familiar with is Battlestar: Galactica

Sweet It actually kinda reminds me of the Witcher 3 around the 1 minute mark. Fields of Ard Skellig, maybe is the tune I'm thinking of? Also, the harp's tuning sounds wonky.

Alright. I fixed the parallel octaves last night and made a some other minor changes. I’ll post the updated score here later today 🙂

Enter, I must

Give it a go :]. Been listening to your quintet. Need to listen it to a few times to familiarize it though.
