A bit of comic relief, No?
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

I couldn't feel the response known as "stride" as in the musical genre of that name, but it is a fine piece of evocative impressionism. I had a persistent image of a speeded up film of a large factory, with heavy machinery stopping and starting and workers rushing about like ants in grim subservience; a terrifying glimpse of something out of the English industrial revolution perhaps. Well done.

Sorry for a completely un-intellectual and out of context reference, but this piece made me think of Wario.

Quantum,

Man! You got a good thing going on with the piano my friend. I love listening to the energy and the plethora of ideas travelling from your brain to your hands. This piece for me was percussive in nature and I really like that. No cute little melodies but rather an instrument that communicates the extroverted well developed high energy coming from you. Really nice... :)
