I wish I could see that picture you're talking about.  As usual your playing is beautiful.  I hear that bass note kinda "sticking out" now and then but have no clue how to fix it or if it even should be.  Beautiful tune, Janet.  It is a great sounding piano whatever you are using!

That's good Brent.  I hope you don't get another foot! We just got an inch.  It's beautiful, but I'm really ready for spring...

Robby, you listened again?  Thanks!

Thank you, Gary!

Thank you too, Warren.  I could simply lower the velocities on those offending notes.  Maybe I'll do that some day (I'm not at my DAW for hours a day anymore like I used to be....)  The picture is the picture I put by the song.  :)

Hi Janet - I like the piece.  It has a really nice flow - played with conviction.  I think the eq sounds good.  The only thing I would do is try soaking it with a cavernous reverb that isn't bottom heavy.  That's totally a subjective and stylistic choice.

Thank you, Geno.  I'll see if I can figure out how to do that without ruining it.  :)

Janet, I'm ready for spring, too! It was close to 80 the other day, so I was really hoping the cold weather was over. We didn't get much snow this time, but it's way too cold for my tastes out there. I'm trying to get more exercise, and walking/jogging in the cold doesn't help!

I do too, Warren.  I saw it in Nat'l Geographic and knew I wanted to write a piece to go along with it.  So I tore out those pages and put them on my keyboard waiting for the tune.  Like I said earlier, I'm not sure this is THE tune, but once I got started on it I had to finish it.  Maybe I should change the name of this one.  lol  Anyway, I was nicely surprised to see the same picture on Google images. :)

You didn't get much snow this time?  Well, maybe tomorrow.  lol  Yeah, I'm a gardener and I think my body is also solar-powered, so I'm about to climb the walls.  Hopefully good weather will be here soon.  It would also be nice if this coldness would prevent another extremely hot, dry summer, but we'll see.

You know, we got a little bit of snow the other day, but it's all melted already. I'm not really complaining, mind you. I like snow, and all, but I'm ready to be warm. Although, being bald and fair skinned, I probably don't love the actually sunlight as much as you do, Janet ;)
