Description
Dianne literally described this improvisation as floating in space being showered by stars. I almost always include an improvisation which uses as many notes as possible being played across the full range of the keyboard as fast as possible. This provides a powerful vibrational experience for the person or the couple lying under the piano. These improvs don't always end up being tracks I want to share, but I'm happy with how this one turned out.

A more technical piece
Stunning playing. Loved it again. I am just downloading before I listen at this point. This one cut off suddenly at 2:51 though, dont know if that was an accident so I figured I would let you know. AMAZING playing on this one. The piano almost sounded like a harp at times. Loved it. Would love to hear the whole piece if you have it. AWESOME

Thanks
Hi Charles, glad to here it was just a computer glitch getting the way of hearing the whole track. I'm thinking of including these two on my first Under the PIano CD. It's a bit of a chore choosing. I've managed to accumulate 222 tracks! from my improvisation sessions done during Under the Piano sessions. Luckily I've been evaluating them as I go and rating them in my iTunes player. So I am not having to listen to all 222 to make choices.

Suits autum, Feter's right.
As Feter said, it suits autumn. Beautiful flow, you were definitely in the pocket. Too bad I wasn't laying under the piano for this--although I probably wouldn't be your first choice, haha. Very nice improv, glad you recorded it.
