fog dissolves to rain
- cool breezes clear the vista,
showing cloud-topped hills

Fog Dissolves To Rain (NaviarHaiku586)

#4126(90.96% 410 left): Apr. 1, 2025: Kneeling in the moonlight to make her gentle vows (E.H.Coleridge from Sep. 2, 2024) 

Today's pure primal piano music here. Happy if this music makes you feel peaceful.. : )

Looking for absolute natural beauty every day for Piano Ten Thousand Leaves. Target number is 4536:
This piece may might have good 1/f fluctuation characteristic although I stopped investigating it each piece.

######## Latest Album: 29th SELECTION ALBUM JUST RELEASED ########
"shin Clair De Lune" - the 29th selection album of piano ten thousand leaves

The best song in the last few years, Shin Clair De Lune, was born, so I named the album after it. The opening song is that song.

kneeling in the moonlight to make her gentle vows - #4126 (80R96 410 ) by chair house 250401

ALMOST ALWAYS _ IMPRO

Disquiet Junto's 693rd prompt instructed us to sort a well-known melody by note and duration. I chose "Claire de Lune" as my source material.

I don't read sheet music and my father didn't raise me to do math on paper, so I wrote a Ruby script that processes a .mid file and sorts according to various pieces of MIDI data, including note number, note name, and time between note on and off events. You can see the source at https://gist.github.com/CoralineAda/3f559279caa892a46fa2ee26fc62b339

I processed the MIDI file a few different times with different sorting criteria, then laid out the variations (including a random sort) in what I hope is an interesting progression. 

In terms of instrumentation, I used a Yamaha digital piano for the lead and a Korg M3R for the pads and accents.

Here's my musical resonance to this week's haiku from @naviar-records.

cloud and mist alike
rendered unnoticeable –
bright moon tonight!
