2011 March 09, Two Preludes.

[Derek]

The second of these two I call "A Beam of Sunlight in the Forest." I imagine walking through an extremely dense portion of the forest and then coming upon a beautiful ray of sunlight. Cheesy romantic crap, I know, but that's me.

I love "cheesy romantic crap"  

It's a bit the world of Schubert and Schumann (I dont mean you copy them, but the mood or world they lived in with their musical ideas)

I don't think that romanticism is gone and only a thing of the past. Your playing, for instance, proves that it is still alive

This is really beautiful!    And I love the name and what you say you imagine! Didn't you once say that you didn't see things while listening to music  or was that someone else? Oh well... doesn't matter I guess  This is really nice and peaceful and hopeful and like getting carried away by that ray of sunlight 

[Derek]

thanks pianowolfi and littletune     littletune, yes you remember correctly. I've never been very creative with imagery in music. The last time I remember doing it, I played something that reminded me of my cat back in '07 or so. Here it is  I notice I said only the beginning part sounded like the cat. Well, upon listening again, in the second part he's in a fight with our other cat and chasing him around.
