This is the first piece that you've posted that hasn't really grabbed me. I can't put my finger on why not but I had a hard time seeing the piece as unified whole rather than just a sequence of events.

Thanks for listening Chris.

This is a new CD of abstract piano solos I'm working on. More a mood to enhance film scenes, though there are some consistent elements throughout the piece. Not as consistent as my previous work though.

The dissonance may have been a turn-off to you as well. Not everyone like those neighboring half-tone clashes.

Best, John smile

I can see that it would work better if it was paired with a movie, I feel like I need something which creates a context for the piece.
