The second one (improv)

The second improvisation I wanted to include in the first post was too large so here it is.

Derek, this is wonderful. It reminds me very much of melodic writing such as the Songs Without Words. The very end I sensed a likeness to the conclusion to one of Medtner's concerto movements.

Your ideas sound very fluent and you produce continuous melody very well.
