I wrote and recorded this melody 2 or 3 years ago when I was first getting back to my music after almost a decade of self-imposed exile from composing.  Life had kind of imploded and it took me that long to find my Muse.

Anyway, this one isn’t polished at all and has no lyrics, though it could use some.  Just me and the piano, live with no processing, recorded direct to my laptop microphone from the keyboard’s speakers with me carrying the melody, open air in the garage.

Still, it is a haunting tune and I think one of my best, or at least one of my most mature pieces.

Also – the music cuts off at the end so it is hard to hear, but the last key is in a major chord, so the entire song ends, literally, on a positive note, which I thought was rather nice.
