A brand new improvisation. Recorded very early this morning. It was still dark outside and I took the chance before starting with today's work. Christmas time is always Blackweeks , Blackfriday and Cybermonday time. As a composer and producer for TV commercials, I have a lot to do. I still take my needed breaks and sit down at my piano and play without any prior idea. Free improvising. Please enjoy.

Both unfussed and exquisite though constantly evolving....
