Solar Filament

On a happier note, I took this picture and created a piece about it. It's about the peacefulness of a lit walkway in a town.

Night Light, City Light

In this track, mostly two, sometimes three violin improv layers, an 13 minute musical walk. I do one, then do another. As I used to do this all the time, for a many years, I'm behind on what I've done. i use the shuffle function to find things. today it was this - March 24 2024 I jump to March 22, 2022 :) and I rather enjoyed it. hope you do too. yes, me playing --- with me. 
I roamed and bumped into a lot of cliches, different folk vibes, many varieties. love a good wander, to touch upon the unknown, forgotten, longed for, dreamt, surprises no doubt too. aps
