Name: Music Journal No. 5 - Violin Trio No. 2 by Mark McCrystal
Duration: 2 min 45 s
Description: A piece I wrote as a journal entry. I woke up thinking about the ocean, and remembered a melody from a piece I wrote in 2012. I re-wrote it for a violin trio. While I was writing, I was thinking this : "Go, I say. Go into that vast blue expanse. Touch the horizon. Meet the burning orange sun as it dives beneath the dark blue. expanse. I say again, go. Go into that vast blue expanse."

A short relaxing piano piece I composed on a beautiful baby grand while watching a storm's end. The clouds rolling away, the wind, everything about it was so peaceful. I recorded this in Studio One 4 Artist using EastWest's beautiful Bösendorfer piano library. Considering my very limited piano skills, I'm very pleased with the recording, and I can still hear the breeze and see those clouds when I play it. I thoroughly enjoyed writing this piece, and hope you guys enjoy it as well.

Clouds: A Storm's End

A piece that aims to describe a brief walk in a field of golden grain.
