The pitches on white keys carry the main flow of the music.  Pitches on black keys contrast and interject.

It's great to see and hear all the improvisation activity going on in here.  :)

That's one of my favorite ways of finding colorful harmonies. I like how your basis of the piece involves the white keys and black keys as participants in the creation of a piece. I enjoyed the last couple of minutes of the piece with the big, heavy "power chords" in the bass and the dancing arpeggiated right hand stuff, with a singing middle voice. very nice.

Yes it is, and I'm glad you are here. As Wolfi said, you are the master.

October 5th has become a special day, as of a memorial. Actually there is lots tied to this day, multiple birthdays and anniversaries, happy things of people I know. But it is a bit of a memorial. A close friend of mine passed away not on this day, but on November 8th last year...but it was on October 5th the report on the cancers (plural) proved imminently terminal, though they said months (plural). It was on that day I recorded the closest thing to an extra musical releasing in improvisation: https://www.pianostreet.com/smf/index.php?topic=36189.0

It's grown so much a part of me...I know you relate to lose, because I've read of your loss. There is a reminiscent melancholy to this  improvisation you've posted, but mostly it is shimmering with the unique beauty of your personal language, which I so much love.
Don't let anyone know where you tie your goat.
