Phillip Glass: Truman Sleeps (The Truman Show)

I haven't been on PS for a long while due to an elbow accident.  I'm returning to piano but still limited by the injury.  Here's a piece I recorded at midnight:

It's very pleasant. Have you looked at any other works from Glass?

Well done, and great to hear you are starting to play again. It's a nice piece of music even though
it has a high "Yann Tiersen factor". It's a pity the video ends so abruptly - you were flashing a great smile there :)

hello Choo,

It has been quite a while ....
and I still hear (& feel) the sadness ...
I wish that someday soon ... the light will come back.

Thank you all for taking the time to watch, listen and comment.  It means a lot.  I have only played one other Glass piece.  I will probably play one of his Metamorphosis pieces one day.
