This is the first movement of a three movement suite for piano I wrote in 2012. It’s performed here beautifully by Benjamin Belew. This suite has several sources of inspiration. The first movement, “Morning Light”, uses a theme that was “playing” in my mind as I woke up one morning about 5 years ago. It reflects a blissful feeling of peace and innocence. The second movement, “Not Forgotten” was inspired by the memory of a very inspiring friend, artist and musician, Ruth Gabriel – a good friend for over 30 years – who passed away in 2008. The third movement, “Soaring”, is inspired by nature, the sky, and the Joy that springs unexpectedly from simple moments. Contact me at [email protected] for info on sheet music.
