Description
The place was about to be locked up by the maintenance guys so I just managed to record this onto a tascam digital multitrack,as the sun was setting.I then fidgeted around for about half an hour while it burned it onto a CD so I could bring it home.Considering what a busy chaotic Valentines day it was I'm suprised it turned out sounding so calm

I could listen to it all day - the ending was alittle 'abrupt' - You said they were locking up the school ? Tuning ? Thanks for sharing & that photo is REALLY GREAT ! Like the contrasts of the photo & the warmth of the piano...

I LOVE IT . Period!!

Thanks Lena
mm - its probably a good job they were locking up else I might have gone on for hours - I get kind of mesmerised by the sound - you know like it becomes something outside of yourself.I always thought it would just sound borng to anyone else though.. Thanks for the support (:

Man, this is brilliant......
I even put on a hat so that I could take it off to you.

It is a piece of spontaneous magic. Improvisation brings out the 'you' in you.

Bravo.

Downloaded and on a CD for in my car.

hey hey
what kind of hat? I'm a big fan of hats - if I ever owned a house you know I'd have a room just made into a hat store.My most favourite hat of al time is one that Don Van Vliet wore during the Electricity phase - its kind of a cross between a bowler and a top hat.I take my hat off to him for just wearing that hat.Hats off to yourself and Roy Harper while I'm at it too.Thanks Paul

Brilliant
I have no much time at the moment to listen to songs and even more to drop some lines, but your playing is so inspired, mastered and emotional I can't restrain my enthusiasm. You're a great musician, Paddler !

Gorgeous piece
You certainly have great improvisational chops. Your excellent piano training is obvious, too. It's very serene, yet soaring and majestic, too.

Wow
This is so great, I second every positive thing said above.

I wouldn't mind had this been 90 minutes long. I get mesmerised by the sound here too. One of the most living and inspiring pieces on the site!

What DOES that piano look like .... ?? I'm very curious! THANKYOU AGAIN for this wonderful piece...

Modal and Impressionistic
Reminds me some of Debussy or Poulenc. Nice playing and well recorded. Looking forward to listening to the rest of your stuff.

oooohh
What a joyous tune. The sound is fabulous. The theme, progression and execution is stellar. Really diggin this on many levels. I wish I could do this. The real thing, bravo

I agree with Cori this could have been 90 minutes and I'd still be enthralled

Enjoy the reverberation
of the piano in this, plus the description is very pleasant to hear. Enjoy your melodies as you go higher on the keyboard, but all this is a very nice listen. I know you do a lot of folk and think this is a nice addition to your stylings!

Thanks for sharing!
