improvisation, july 10th. "atonal"

I don't often record improvs like this, but play in this style often. I was inspired to give it a more creative effort by some of my friends here on pianostreet, and also by keith jarrett's "Radiance" album. enjoy

bump  :)  Listening to this again, I'm not sure I'd call it atonal...more like "very chromatic."

I have to admit that in general I'm not that interested in improvised music. So I rarely klick on "improvisation" links in the audition room. The "atonal" in the title made me curious.

Honestly I can say, I like this improvisation very much. though I agree with you, it's not really "atonal". But that's not a big disadvantage.  ;)
If it doesn't work - try something different!
