A pensive restless quality... ... to this theatrical piece. I see spotlight on a lone dancer on a darkened stage. She's searching for something with controlled and calculated grace. Suddenly she's taken hold of and tossed about becoming a spinning whirlwind - just as suddenly she's let go falls helplessly to the ground. Slowly she lifts herself up to again begin her search.

Thanks Thanks a lot, Charlie; as you know, I am a big fan of your music, so I'm glad you were able to have a listen. What a great discription! I sometimes think that, rather than make a movie first, then add music, someone should try making the music first, then making a film about it... Although I'm sure it's been done... "Fantasia," for instance... (?) --- ClarkRoss.ca is now welcoming visitors from distant planets -- Apply within Check out my latest song called Scarlet Nightfall

A perfect title..... This piece evokes a dream sequence in an older film musical. Bernstein comes to mind although I don't know quite why. I also hear cello and muted brass in places, going off on their own musical tangent against this backdrop. If I had one gripe it would be your lady friends attention span. Too short. (Ha ha). Should I expect this theme to be developed?? Take care. Paul. Check out my latest song called Cosmic Journey

Thanks Hi Paul, you make a very interesting comment! I was a little surprised at first that you heard Bernstein-like qualities here, but then I realized that maybe the faster, more rhythmically-urgent section about 2/3 of the way through might be what gave you that association... Interesting. I have no plans for further development of this... This is part of a set called "Ten Short Piano Pieces," so I was thinking miniatures as I wrote them. The other ones are almost all shorter. Thanks again! --- ClarkRoss.ca is now welcoming visitors from distant planets -- Apply within Check out my latest song called Scarlet Nightfall

I agree..... I agree about the section that evoked Bernstein being towards the end. There is a small section where the type of sound/technique brought a vivid picture of 1950'ish musicals that had some sort of surreal section, usually with one actor/dancer and a sparse set, to my minds eye. I would be very interested in listening to other pieces from your set. If they are in the same or similar vein I'm sure there would be quite a few people, besides me, who would love to hear them. I learn such a lot from this type of classical piece, such as technique, phrasing, articulation and arranging. Thanks for sharing it with the world. Take care.

A frozen progression... I will first mention that I am frozen in the Baroque/Classical/Romantic era, and never quite made it into the Impressionistic era (Monet and Debussy leave me squinting incomprehensibly)... my loss. I must say that although this wanders into sort of Debussy territory, it seems more listenable than much of his stuff, so you did well with a tough audience like me. Not my style, but mostly abstract and fluffy. Definitely well-written, performed and recorded, though. :-) ttfn, Drakonis Check out my latest song called Lullaby for the Inner Child

Thanks Thanks, Eduard. You mean you don't like "The Girl With the Flaxen Hair?" "Clair de lune?" "Golliwog's Cakewalk?" How is this even possible??? Those are three of Debussy's most popular piano pieces, so if you haven't had a chance to hear them, I highly recommend them... If you have heard them and remain unswayed, then fair enough! We all like what we like, and there's nothing wrong with that. While I like a lot of Debussy, Ravel is one of my all-time favorite composers; he has been compared to Mozart, for writing so many 'perfect' pieces in which there is not a single superfluous note, and melodic invention abounds. Abounds, I tells ya! --- ClarkRoss.ca is now welcoming visitors from distant planets -- Apply within Check out my latest song called Scarlet Nightfall

now Ravel... I think I was traumatized by having to listen to "La Mer" over and over as a child... but yes, I've heard Golliwog and Clair de Lune, and they are less impressionistic and thus more popular, and yes, I like them better :-) But I agree about Ravel, not only a fabulous composer, but also an amazing orchestrator... after all, when we hear Mussorgsky's "Pictures at an Exhibition", it is usually Ravel's orchestral transcription, not Mussorgsky's original piano piece we hear. Anyway, I remain unswayed about Debussy (and Monet.) Besides, if I liked *everything*, I'd have to enjoy Hovannes, Brittney Spears, John Tesh, Death Metal, and the complex overtones of fingernails on a chalkboard.

Exceptional Your music is always accessible to me, even though its vocabulary is much more extensive and more "outside" than my own. The dissonances are very effective and communicate deeply. This is a tool I do not own. Very enjoyable flow, very polished and professional, like all your work, Clark. Check out my latest song called Just As It Is

Thanks Thanks Mr. Pucker... er, Patrick! One of the beautiful things about musical communication is that it can happen in so many ways, irrespective of the tools we happen to have and use. And you already have a wealth of tools, that you always use to great advantage! (It seems like we're overdue for another Futzpucker composition!

very well played - Each note was- oh- for lack of a better way to say it - well placed. Others here have described it in a much more sophisticated way. This song is one I could easily play for my students, and they would love it. They'd also make up long stories about what was happening in the song, (I'm thinking lower primary, here.) As a matter of fact, I try to expose students to more impressionistic and 20th century stuff than I was, because I want them to have less of a phobia about modern music. This is short, descriptive, and holds enough of a melody line that they would become involved in it. Oh - i like it, too. It's not fluffy or comforting, but it's good!

Thanks I love that you expose your students to more 20th-century music than you heard as a student; I think you're right, that the earlier we hear this kind of music, the less likely we are to develop antipathy or snobbery against it as we grow older. My experience, and that of pretty much any teacher of young kids that I have talked to, is that young kids are generally receptive to this kind of stuff, especially if it has a programmatic title that sparks their imagination. This is from a set of short piano pieces, which I played for elementary school students at a school visit a number of years ago, and they seemed to respond well. They seemed eager to make up a story to go along with each piece, which was fun for me. Thanks! PS I'd be curious to know what the reaction was if you were ever to play this for your students. --- ClarkRoss.ca is now welcoming visitors from distant planets -- Apply within Check out my latest song called Scarlet Nightfall

Aw heck... ...you've got the MacJams Critical Big Guns listening on this one... Anything I say will reveal my ignorance. Again. You know what this reminds me of? Hitchcock... if we're talking movie sorts of things, I'm thinking 'impressionism meets suspense'... And in fact, what do I know, but dissonance seems at times to EVOKE suspense...one strains towards resolution... or I do, at any rate...It's like something has been tipped justly slightly past the balance point, and is straining towards a new point of balance that may not arrive... A heroic impulse for less certain times... I love listening to your stuff, Clark. We at The Institute ARE going to be needing your brain...

| composerclark said 1017 days ago (June 6th, 2007) | |

Thanks Thanks, Ed. I really like your description of Hitchcock visual imagery... This piece, like virtually every piece I ever wrote, was written without any thoughts of a title or programmatic association, and it was only after I finished it that I tried to figure out what was being evoked here, and what a good title might be. It seemed to have both a suspenseful element, as if walking home very late at night in an isolated area, and hearing footseps behind you, wondering if you are imagining this, and a calming, dream-like feel, which is how it got its title. But all this does sound very Hitchcockian, you're right! As for my brain, I am feeling very nervous right now, wondering when your goons from the institute will be paying me a call... I think I'm living out the plot to my submission... EEK! --- ClarkRoss.ca is now welcoming visitors from distant planets -- Apply within Check out my latest song called Scarlet Nightfall

You should know... My partner has never really risen to the point of gushing over my music when I've asked him to listen, until today. He's into folks like, Mozart and artist with names like, Caravaggio - And he's a Shakespearean, you know. (I don't know these names - I had to google them just to post this comment) But back to my point - Today, when I gave him my headphones and asked him to listen to music that I had just created, I got a fairly different response then what has become, par ftc. His eyes beaming wide, with a huge smile on his face, he asked, "YOU DID THIS!?!?!?" - REALLY!?!?!?" It was on repeat in itunes, and it continued to play over and over, as he stood there, listening. - It really almost bothered me - He sported a look of disbelief mixed w/ a smile of total contentment. "This is really good!" he said. Finally, guilt started to roll in and I was starting to feel as though this little lie grew bigger than I had intended - It was time to confess that no, I didn't create this piece of music, and in fact, I was just about to offer up a few words of gratitude and appreciation to the real creator of said, work of art. It's the least that I could do... Really Clark, I'm not so qualified as to be able to tell ya all of the reasons why this IS a work of art, but I do rub elbows w/ folks who can...

Thanks Ha! That was a great comment... you are very, very funny, in addition to being a huge talent and maybe the most generous soul at MacJams! From Wikipedia: Caravaggio was considered enigmatic, fascinating, rebellious, and dangerous. He burst upon the Rome art scene in 1600, and thereafter never lacked for commissions or patrons, yet handled his success atrociously. In fact, he killed a guy in a brawl and had to flee Rome... Man, can I relate to that! Okay, not really, but there are reasons I live on an island in the North Atlantic, as opposed to, say, Rome... Anyway, that was a great, make-my-day comment, and I thank you for that. --- ClarkRoss.ca is now welcoming visitors from distant planets -- Apply within Check out my latest song called Scarlet Nightfall

Now, I know .. .. what impressionist painting looks like, and like it a lot, but I'm a little embarassed to say that I didn't even realise there was an impressionist school in classical music (guess who wasted time in high school music classes?!). Having said that however, if this is an example of said genre, then I'm in. This actually took me (and before I'd read the impressionist bits) to wandering around Marc Chagall's museum in Nice - maybe it was the title - hearing footsteps (lots of them, belonging to a class of 7 year olds on their school excursion) was a part of that experience. I'm very envious of your ability with the keys - hey, you can probably even read the black dots! Very nice piece Clark! Neil Check out my latest song called PBGB/jiguma Radio Interview

Thanks Thanks for the great comment... The part about hearing footsteps at the Chagal museum in Nice -- lots of them, belonging to 7-year olds -- made me smile; it is a meaning of "hearing footsteps" that I hadn't considered when I titled this piece (I was thinking of it in a more suspenseful-being followed late at night - kind of way, but I really liked your description.

Thanks And let me just add that I really appreciated your comment as well! As you know, I am always blown away by your music, so it means a lot to me when you leave a comment. Regarding your comment on teaching, I can tell you this: Teaching is a mug's game (partly kidding, partly not...). I would guess that about 90% of my students have never heard my music, nor have any interest in hearing it, and very few of those who have heard it have anything positive to say about it. Not complaining, such is life when you teach, and really, that's fine by me. But I guess that's one of the main reasons I joined MJ's, to find out how people respond to my music.

Thanks Glad you enjoyed it. This piece is actually from the same set as the '5 short Piano Pieces' that I posted here -- the complete set is called, cunningly, '11 Short Piano Pieces,' and they are all slightly different in character, although, as you point out, this one is fairly distinct in style and character from the 5 piano pieces you heard already. The thing I was going for here was a feeling of dreaminess, but a dream in which there is a gradual buildup in tension until it reaches its peak, approximately 61.8% of the way through. Thanks again!

It evoked a strong desire to daydream :-) Subtle, intriguing and mysterious. It sounds so free spirited and improvised. I wish i could call that up. :-)
