Those wild polyrhythms create very original landscape. :)

Such a gentle piano! Sounds very soft and cute

Great piece, full of expressive gestures. Well done

Nice piece - unexpected twists keep the song flowing!

this piano composition has an interesting progression

it's amazing how much emotion just one instrument can add

Really interesting piece. I assume you played this? Nice playing as well. Love the more dissonant parts that happen later on in the piece.

Very powerful music.  With very interesting rhythms and harmonies (some dissonant👍).  Very well produced

Here you can hear the original and unedited improvisation -->

This version has most content cut out, notes added or moved around, velocities adjusted, and the tempo slightly quickened.

Let me know what you think! I accept notes of all kinds.

Thank you, and take care 🙏🙏🖤

Happy Smiling Again

Lyrics by Robbie and Cavebar, based upon our shared summer memories from many years ago:

Oooh..
Floating aimlessly in the night, somehow feeling our hearts taking flight,
Lying in our canoe on the bay, gently rocking our youth, all in sway,
Eyes fixed on the magical sky; star-filled wonder as meteors fly,
Soft surrender to mysteries vie with our need to know why.

Bobbing, quiet in darkness and calm, endless beauty that acts as a balm,
Sharing fragments of our young lives; 
Whispered stories of how we survived
Wondering aloud how to be; forming a philosophy
Trying hard to find the right word; when the meanings were blurred, and it all seemed absurd.
                 
Happy to be, happy to be, just happy to be, happy to be
Happy to be, just happy to be, on this planet.
Happy to be, happy to be, just happy to be, happy to be
Happy to be, just happy to be, on this planet.

Floating aimlessly in the night, somehow knowing all will be right,
Lying in that canoe on the bay, gently rocking our worries away,
Feeling fortunate and free, most of life was still to be,
Fostering a dream, of a future that’s bright, like the heavens at night.

Happy to be, happy to be, just happy to be, happy to be
Happy to be, just happy to be, on this planet.
Happy to be, happy to be, just happy to be, happy to be
Happy to be, just happy to be…….just to be.

PROGRAM NOTE
Couples who are in love often share the same interests, finish each other sentences, and laugh at the same jokes. In fact, Scientists at the University of California, Davis discovered that a couple’s breathing patterns and heart rates match up if they sit close to each other or look into each other’s eyes. They don’t even have to hold hands or talk for this to happen. However, a similar effect apparently does not occur among strangers, only couples in love. Coupled with this idea, I have always been fascinated by binary stars, which are two stars that rotate together, on the same axis. Binary Hearts for solo marimba is inspired by these phenomena. In this piece, I use heartbeat-like motives and ostinati, fast moto-perpetuo rhythmic sections and choral-like episodes, creating a joyous, gently shifting tapestry that is meant to reflect how two people feel when they are in love. Binary Hearts was commissioned by Micheal Barnes in honor of his marriage to Carly Prince.
