"Dark Light" -- Improv

[Mayla]

Well, I think I am starting to use this forum to push me toward growth ... so be it.  I guess it's a phase.  One day I will look back at this improv and cringe, just like I do with all my text-posts from a couple of years ago -- can't even stand to read them. 

Anyway, here is another improv.  I don't always feel like I have "time" to let myself focus on improv, though I love it, and so this happens to be a time when I am letting myself focus on it -- soon, it will have to go bye bye for awhile (I think), so I better get it out now.

I don't feel like saying much about this one either, except for that it starts a lot differently than it ends (well, something like that anyway   ) -- so maybe don't just write it off.  This is probably the "darkest" one I have ever done... hope it's not TOO dark.  This one is under 5 minutes (at least after having cut the tail a bit  ). 

Thanks for listening !  I hope, afterall, that it's not too uncomfortable  .

Thank you Mayla, this is really cool, everyday there is something new from you to listen to when I come here in the morning. Keep it up!

I like how it starts out sparse then gradually grows in density.  You have a good feel for the piano's sonority.  With each new improv you post, I hear you exploring all this new territory.  Good on you for this.

I like a lot of the chord changes in this one. You're becoming very harmonically adventurous!

very cool, the stuff ive heard from you so far seems very dark and ambient, as if its for a horror movie of some sort

[Mayla]

Thanks very much, you guys.  Yeah, I guess I am experimenting a bit lately.  Oh well, people will just have to cope 

as if its for a horror movie of some sort

Maybe it is

Hey Mayla,

You ought to submit this to a music film library. This would make a great music bed for a Hitchcock type  film.

Best, John
