Spun Glass (May 2001)
|

|
"Spun
Glass" was my first attempt at converting my piano
improvisations into something that could be shared with
people. Technology had a lot to do with it: I
finally "bit the bullet" and bought myself
a Roland RD-600 digital piano. Now I had something
with full-sized, weighted keys, Steinway sampling, and
connections that allowed it to be hooked directly to
my PC. At last, I could "stream" music
directly into the PC -- no interruptions, no barking
dogs, telephones, etc. (Well, none that can be heard
in the music, anyway.)

So
it's the first in what I hope will be a continuing line
of music people can enjoy. Some people still like
this one the best. And everyone has a different
favorite -- something that makes me feel very satisfied,
that I can touch people in various ways. Of the
pieces, "How Far Away You Are Today" and "Please
Dry My Tears" will soon be available as sheet music. You
may listen to 1-minute clips as well. And if you're
interested in purchasing, I'd be most appreciative!
