To give buoyancy of the murmurs in the abyss within us:

A meditative piece, and an experiment between 3 different melodic cells where the second and third cell has an additive note.  Each cell repeats once the melody reaches the note E until the combination of the notes are played full circle.   The pulses in between notes are measured carefully and are equally considered in the cycle.

London based pianist and composer Mike Lazarev @headphonecommute celebrates Piano Day 2020 with this delicate offering. 
. . . 
far beyond a time-slice of the past lies a short-lived moment
in that memory, I played the piano and you listened
now all that/s left is that memento and this music
and while i/m forgetting it lives on...
