New Music Session

There is a brand new session now available on the music2work2 web site. Late791 is a piece consisting of only the piano and has a somewhat different feel to me than some of the other sessions. It is a slow, melodic piece that has a rather somber tone.

The imagery for me from this session is of a rainstorm. In the beginning I see the sky grow darker. At 4-5 minutes into the piece, the raindrops begin - the clear notes of the piano representing the rain as it falls. As it waters the earth, the clouds begin to break but the rain continues to softly fall. It brings needed sustenance and it leaves all of nature refreshed and clean. It gives me the sense of a renewal or revitalizing – leaving existence better than when it began.

Check out this new piece. As background music, it is good while doing work at the computer, cleaning the house, any kind of work. But, also try listening closely to the session, focusing on the melody, the clearness of the piano, and see what image it evokes for you.

Beautiful

Beautiful on music2work2.com is certainly appropriately named. It is one of those pieces of music that makes me feel good just to listen to it.

Listening to Beautiful, the imagery it evokes for me is of a sunrise. The sun's rays slowly break through as it rises above the horizon. It announces the beginning of a new day - - hopefully a good, "beautiful" day, but regardless, another opportunity to live, to love, to learn and to grow.

1218

The theme of music2work2's 1218 that stands out for me is change - the change from piano to piano and strings, the change in tempo, the change in melody.There seem to be different moods, and different actions taking place within the piece.

The tempo varies - slow, fast, slow, and even the voices or instruments carry different tempos simultaneously. The mood changes from soft and mellow to one of excitement or heightened feelings/activity, then back to mellow again.  I envision more than just change in this session - the willingness to risk and explore change even further.  The piano seems to take on an energy that allows it to push ahead, to take the lead and and try new and more complicated things.

Having spent the past week dealing with technical support people in trying to get new phone and Internet service set up, this piece is particularly representative of the changes, the varied feelings and emotions I have gone through.There is a lot going on in this piece, and there has been a lot going on with my thoughts and feelings through my ordeal – from extreme anger to resigned acceptance of spending hours trying to finally reach someone who could solve the problem.

This piece makes me think about a person who is willing to experience life with all its changes and forge ahead, following new paths and trying new things.The changes and experiences may not all be easy, but they do not discourage the individual from continuing to experience life and grow.

1218 is a pleasing, up-lifting and encouraging piece. It is one of my favorites.
