Crying

This piece is for 4 hands piano. But what you hear in this recording is played back by the notation software. This piece can also be played by a single pianist if sufficiently advanced. The difficulty for a single pianist would lie on the rapid succession of thirds on the left hand, which requires great dexterity.
Lots of changes in key in this piece. The first 13 measures (i.e., the first 30 seconds) go through the following sequence of Major keys: A, D, A, D, G, C, F, and E-flat. It then remains in E-flat for most of the piece until near the end when it starts shifting through keys again.

Blue Maiden I - Blå Jungfrun I
Own composition. 
Sometimes the Island of the Blue Maiden appears to be floating above water, rising up from the fog, a moment captured in this song.

Tranquility

This piece starts off from the repeating 4 notes of the 3rd movement from Beethoven's Tempest Sonata (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ZRoZgmqlfso) but takes off in a much different direction with new melodies. The piece borrows from Beethoven only those repeating 4 notes and the figuration of the left hand... everything else being my own. Though the feeling is overtly Beethovian too (with all due distances, of course)... And do you sometimes hear echoes of the Für Elise? (To my ear, the Für Elise itself has echoes of the Tempest's 3rd movement, even in its opening theme.)

The title "After the Tempest" has double meaning. It "takes after" Beethoven's Tempest's 3rd movement. And it also represents the sunlight and freshness felt after a storm's atmospheric depression has passed. Triple meaning, actually, as we endure this terrible worldwide depression and wish for the day it will past us somehow...

Played by software, sorry...

The painting shown is by Thomas Cole (1836), entitled "The Oxbow" and represents an oxbow in the Delaware River after a passing storm. Beethoven's Tempest sonata was written 1801-1802 and Für Elise dates from 1810.
