Twilight mist - improv

It was quite sunny when I recorded this.
Made a Liszt. Need new Handel's for Soler panel & Alkan foil. Will Faure Stein on the way to pick up Mendels' sohn. Josquin get Wolfgangs Schu with Clara. Gone Chopin, I'll be Bach

wow, Quantum.  I have to say that I find this very appealing -- somehow this piano was a perfect match for this improvisation.  I just love the harmonies and the mood -- it makes me almost feel creative again !  :D

Thanks for posting this :).

As always, your dynamic range and phrasal variety is very comprehensive, syncretic and a lesson in the value of cultivating improvisational contrast, to be sure. These contrasts, coupled with the portentous figures in the bass are at times irresistably reminiscent of the Emerson movement of the Concord if it were not for the tremolos which hardly, if ever, occur in the piano music of that composer. The initial sequences of chords of the same, or almost the same type amount to a sort of melody which substitutes chords for single notes. There is a name for the device but I cannot remember it. As an opening it is particularly effective here.
