haiku #537: Deep in the mountains - / falling into my heart / autumn streams

unlike the first version (recorded in 2020) the introduction is missing with that fantastic Pad-style sound which was actually a sample I recorded of a jute piece of furniture, the same sample used for the song precisely called: Juta.
here the piano part, unlike the first version which was more focused on the search for harmonic contrasts, is actually performed and I had to give up many notes (which for technical reasons I am not able to perform) and I don't even know if it is really possible for someone... I have been practicing it for some time and I still do it almost every day in performance and for some time I have wanted a new recording made properly with my hands on the keyboard.
You can find the first version here, in case you want to compare the two versions:

still in progress

Don't Forget To Breathe (whatever Happens) _*Solo Piano

Lots of great duos to choose from -- so went for adding ingredients to https://on.soundcloud.com/yEVsaczJg9y3fz1R8 by @blaaroed and @he_nu_ri. Strictly improvisatory approach, first take of what came to my mind off the top of my head. Panned dead centre as per the instructions, hence the song title (the post code for London's Centre Point building).

Enjoy!

Falling Into Autumn Streams - naviarhaiku537

Deep in the mountains -
falling into my heart
autumn streams

Shinkei (1406-75) was a renowned renga poet and critic, best known for his two-part work "Sasamegoto" (Murmured Conversations). To find out more about this interesting and largely unknown poet-priest, Marco from Naviar recommends reading Heart's Flower - The Life and Poetry of Shinkei by Esperanza Ramirez-Christensen.
