Your piano tune is great! I compose this kind of music too on piano....but never seem to get around to notating it on staff paper! I get titles for them and never finish them...LOL!!
And as I'm listening...Holy Cow! I worked out my own jazz piano arrangement of "Somewhere Over the Rainbow" that my husband just loves. So nice to hear yours too!
I'm so spoiled! LOL! I've got a beautiful grand piano (with all it's original real ivory keys in pristine condition). My husband's a Registered Piano Technician so I get my piano tuned at least every month ;-) And of course any other repairs and attention needed.
Ooops! I thought I was listening to your tune. Crazy me...it was pandora. com that I had on! LOL! So the first two paragraphs of my earlier comment are more or less mute...Hahaha! Sorry about that.
However,your tune really is fun too! Sorry though...I've got no ideas for your song title. Keep writing ;-)
Hi Connie,
No worries. I wrote lyrics for the song so I do have a title for it now. I'm happy to hear from someone that also composes. Have you got any samples I can listen to? I'm not much of a jazz musician - my focus is writing mostly pop and commercial style pieces. It's interesting how song sounds so different when it's sung versus a piano cover - people keep telling my my piano covers sound like television or film pieces- somehow without a voice attached, it's hard for them to imagine it as a sung type of song.
Cheers,
Karen
