Relaxing, but not boring.  Very nice, Janet.  

Janet



Thanks so much Marcus!  There are a few pianists around here that are sheer acrobats with their fingers and compositions.  That's not me, but I was hoping this would resonate with a few.  I've got about 100 up on my SC page if you want to hear more.  ;)   

Already went there and I listened to some more. it all sounds great Janet!

Wonderful Janet, a great mixture of classical and modern music. My favorite from you I think. Thanks for free dl. Brilliant passionate piece!

Very nice composition Janet.  Hope you're feeling better.

Janet - this is just beautiful - so well done.

Sorry to hear about the shoulder - I hope it's not permanent.

I'm having surgery on my left hand on Nov. 14 to correct a dupytrens contracture. There is no permanent fix - but after a bit of rehab I'll get some more years of guitar playing.

Again - this is just a gorgeous piece of music - I just loved it.

Thanks Janet. This is really nice. Sweet to the ears. Reminds me of a Christmas carol. Hope your shoulder feels better.

Zzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzzz! Huh, what........oh, it's finished.....

Just kidding ! You know how much I prefer it when you get all moody and dramatic, but this is nice too, wish I could play like that. Could maybe use a little more reverb ?

because my shoulder hurts so much

Quartazone...


That, and/or, get a pulley with a rope with 2 handles (pieces of wood) and hang it in the garage and pull on it daily for 15 minutes 5 times or more a day stretching your shoulder.

Nice tune.

What I liked about this is, that although it's a slower tempo, there is a lot of melody happening which keeps it interesting. Nice song.

Beautiful tune and sounds.. enjoyable instrumental music.. 

Hi, Janet,
 
Beautiful playing, as always, and this really has a "live" quality that make me feel like I'm sitting in the front row at a grand concert hall.
 
Nice work, and I hope your shoulder feels better soon!
Bob

This is a really beautiful piece....enjoyed it very much!

Beautiful, Janet.  Real piano, right?  It didn't put me to sleep.  I wish it did, I need some.  :-)  Beautifully done!  Crystal clear sound.  Oh, sorry about that shoulder. 

OK, so Ivory is a patch?  The keyboard is not like a grand piano (acoustic) or something?  Pardon my ignorance on piano stuff.  It just sounds so , well, so much like a piano!  :-)

Yes, Warren, Ivory is a patch, or whatever you call those things.  lol  The piano is just a lowly keyboard that I bought from Reece a few years ago.  Nice touch, but it's not a grand by any stretch of the imagination.  Ivory, on the other hand, is like swimming in chocolate. I love the sound of it.  :)  Some of the guys around here helped me tweak it the first month...I've barely touched those knobs since. :)  And unfortunately, if I played this on a real piano it wouldn't sound nearly this good because I haven't practiced it long enough to play it w/o mistakes.  :) 

Thank you, Bob. :)  I should have said that Rik (Rikkie) helped me figure out that reverb.  What I had on it before, and sent him, sounded terrible, but I couldn't tell that until I heard this version.  So...he's the master of this one. :)   Funny you should mention the title...I have no idea where that came from, but it popped into my head, I figured it was good enough...and it works. :)  You know when you open up a new project...and it won't even let you open it until you name it...well, it doesn't give you much time to consider it, and that's tough if it's just an instrumental.  :)  Another silly thing about this song....I didn't play it long enough to really get it into my head, so I usually can't remember how it starts.  Then a few days ago, between classes, this cool riff came into my head.  I played it on the old piano in the hall, wrote down the notes...and on the way home started humming it...and realized it was this song.  I think I need a new riff.  :)   Anyway, thanks again. :)  You need to write more, btw.  (poetry, songs, etc.) :)
