Movement Machina & Timo Vaittinen - Upsides Have Downsides (REALPROG V.3) Out Now

"Downpour begins.
All seek shelter and protection,
Witnessing raw power and strength
In purest form:

Torrential storm,
Violence and insecurity
Taunt us indiscriminately.
We are helpless.

The Heavens bless us,
Sustaining body and mind.
Our brief lifetime, truly sublime;
The water thins."

We talk about the NBA Trade Deadline and start getting into College Hoops.

Runnin' - Jeremy Jones

The first movement from my sonata for two pianos.

Originally the first of two solo piano sonatas, this work was actually too ambitious (read: impossible) for one player, but I basically refused to edit down my ideas and instead expand upon them to create a full-fleshed out four movement sonata.

The first movement is full of energy, constant changes in key and tempo, and always circling back to, essentially the first two measures, but also reiterates itself in different and unique ways.  There's also a smattering of Mozart-esque classical flair that appears a handful of times to bring extra levity to the piece.
