New Music!

Here are three more themes of very different mood and tempo. Hope you like them!

Theme 119 for Piano and Drums, mostly.

Theme 162, which I call Let It Rain.

Theme 155, titled I Will Stay. Somber. Patience on this one.

One thought on “New Music!”

Satie has always been close to my heart so “I Will Stay” was one of my favorites.
Your music reminds me of your storytelling—just spills out of you—although it may not seem that way while you’re at it.
Waiting for little Sam’s lullaby!

Why Mountain Breakfast?

Well, many years ago, before computers and the internet, I wrote a short story about a man who carried an enormous length of garden hose up a mountain with the goal of starting a siphon to run water from a lake to his cabin below. His only friend, a water attorney (?!?!), warned him that stealing water could get him in a lot of trouble. But, undeterred by this cautionary advice, he proceeded to climb to the lake and start the siphon. Meanwhile, his friend cooked breakfast in the cabin below. By the time the hose was hooked up, his friend had set fire to the kitchen and lost control of his wits. Just when it looked like the cabin would be burned to ashes, the hose began blasting water, and he was able to save the house. This was the first of several short-short stories in a series that I called Mountain Breakfast, in which each tale involved cooking or eating breakfast in the wild. It was all about humans, all about nature, and all about human nature. I’m still at it, still hiking and thinking and writing tales, although they’re longer now, and not about eating breakfast.
