Congratulations on achieving this!  I appreciate how much work must have gone into turning improvised music into a composition, and subsequently presenting this music in public as a composition. 

Was the audience aware of the visual imagery you paired with this music in the earlier videos?
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

Thanks.. it took about a month to get the improvisation into a kind of notationally formal score - hard work tbh. The audience didn't have access to the visual cues, but my programme notes contained a kind of compressed verbal narrative which might have been a small substitute.
