Piano Improvisation - 'Forest Morning!'

Relax and get refreshed as you enjoy a beautiful forest morning. Forest Morning uses broken chords to create a quiet ambiance. I've got the sheet music for this too at https://solosheets.blogspot.com

A pleasant piece, but...I personally have always found adding nature sounds to new age to be distracting, as I want to listen to the music itself. Where I live in Pennsylvania provides enough birdsound backdrop already.

Its a pretty piece, but not very adventurous for improvisation: for me, improvising is about exploring various feelings and harmonies and textures, this did not attempt much outside of its comfort zone. This is only my personal opinion! however this is a nice peice so far as "new age" music goes. Its pretty and its simplicity is beautiful, i do agree with derek It would have benifited from not having the background sounds. Please keep improvising though, Its great to hear different styles in the forum.
