Description:
Passeggiata is an Italian word that means "a going" and is akin to the English notion of "taking a stroll." That is what this piece does: takes a little stroll, looks around in a rather peaceful manner, and returns home. I hope you enjoy the journey.

I love walks like this. &mdash 11/10/06 - 08:58:54 AM
Paul, you very nicely captured the awe of seeing the wonders of God's creation as I stroll through the woods and mountains where I live. Thank you so much!

Lord bless,

Rick

I'm walking &mdash 11/10/06 - 10:07:35 AM
and window shopping in a small town on a Sunday afternoon. Leaves are falling and it looks like it's going to rain in a while. But it's a beautiful peaceful day and I'm in a rather good mood:) Maybe off to the movies...

You are such a great artist Paul.
Thank you for leaving this here for us to enjoy.
Beautiful!

Thoddi,
Thank you so much for your response to my little strolling piece (peace!). I hope it gives a few people a tiny respite from our fast-food, got-to-have-it-now world. Glad you enjoyed it.
Paul

Thanks for taking the time to send a little note. I am so pleased that you and others are enjoying the things I am posting to macjams. It is a real affirmation to me to get so many positive responses. I have been writing in a vacuum for so long that this is all very refreshing indeed. Thanks again for listening to my music.

Max,
I just jumped into MacJams.com about 2 weeks ago and am astounded by the reaction to my music. I really appreciate your taking the time to send a comment and particularly glad that you enjoyed listening to what I had written. If you click on my name/photo, you'll find some other things, too. If you have the time, check some of them out. ... Again, I am so grateful for your positive reaction.

For as long as I can remember, I've never been able to write when anyone was either listening or watching. Maybe that's why I now so love working in the privacy of digital instruments and a pair of earphones!!! I'm glad you enjoyed the number and hope you'll listen to others that I've posted. Thanks a lot for sending a comment my way. I really appreciate it.

So that's it, huh? &mdash 11/10/06 - 10:55:12 PM
I come home from work every night this week, and download a piece from paul f. page...

Perfectly performed, elegantly written, lyrical without lyrics, and perfect Ivory tone. Again.

Gosh, man.

This is one that doesn't NEED words, by any means, but could TAKE words in a heartbeat... There almost seem to be words hovering on the edge of taking shape as you listen to it...

Awfully good...

Ed

Strolling.... &mdash 11/11/06 - 10:27:05 AM
I can't tell you how grateful I am for your comments. They are such an affirmation to a composer who works mostly in a vacuum. Having a broader world finally hear some of my things is just awesome. Thanks again. I'll try to not let you down.

Joy &mdash 11/11/06 - 01:31:41 AM
Paul, I think I've already told you how I feel about your playing - this simply confirms it. Relaxed and relaxing, spanning styles, spanning time - a real joy to listen to. Your walks are much more relaxing than the ones I go on though : )
Thanks,
Neil

Jiguma,
That's so much for your nice comment about Passeggiata. I think the walks I take in my mind as I write as better than the ones I take in "real" life, too. But the mind is designed for wandering and I let it take me wherever it likes. I am so pleased that you are enjoying my work.

calm and serene &mdash 11/11/06 - 09:48:17 PM
I like the rising melody and chord progression. Each time it's a bit different. This carries through with a nice relaxed yet alert feeling. It's very nice to just listen to.

This is simply beautiful! I love solo piano stuff. I had a pretty stressful day and this "peace" is just what I needed about now. Going to check out your other tunes now!

peace

strolling &mdash 11/12/06 - 12:58:21 AM
Thanks for sending me a comment. I am glad that you found some peace in my little piece. It is very satisfying to me that someone (you) is (are) affected by what I write. ... I am somewhat surprised, too, that quite a few people have mentioned how much they enjoy solo piano, though I have not found a lot of it at MacJams. I find that after writing a bunch of orchestral things I always come back home, so to speak. I guess the basics never cease to interest me. You take care...and I hope you'll have a chance to hear a few more of my things.
Paul

Autumn leaves drifting to the ground. Beautiful and just a tiny bit sad that winter cold is setting in. Lovely piece of music, Paul.
